The Palm uses IRComm if you do serial port redirection (or write your own code to
open an IRcomm link). It uses IRobex for beaming things.

Nokia's use their own proprietary IR standard until newer models (9000, 8210, 8850,
etc) which use IRcomm.

No idea about Ericsson's but I think they use IRcomm if you have the modem etc..

(PS IRcomm from Palm to phone is very neat.. kind of expensive for data calls tho :)
