Possibly, yes.  However the easiest way for  Windows Mobile 6.1 would be to copy the WLM  UI in HTML5 and write some javascript code that could connect it to an escargot chat server.   If you get me some screen shots of a mobile version of the App  i have no problem making the UI

for some reason the  pictures you sent me weren't transferring. i can get files from other people though. can you attach them here?
Also, looking into a bunch of assets and things using a Resource Editor tool,  i think i found most of the graphical elements and what not which can let me more accurately recreate the UI in HTML5.   For Windows Mobile, what are the Browser options?  IE ? I suspect that  WinMobile 6.1  apps were written using some form of Visual Basic and then compiled against some type of ARM toolchian.
If you or anyone you know can figure out what the pinout for an  i-mate 9987  PocketPC phone battery with 4  pins on the battery  let me know.  I have no idea where i could get a replacement battery for it to power the thing up and do some testing...

just sent them again, check them now?
regarding the browser options, theres also opera mini, both j2me (which i downloaded from a link that was in a video about opera mini on the motorola razr v3) and a .cab file that i think came with the os (I have a sony ericsson xperia x1)
