Access serial port on a client via web?

Hello all,
I'm trying to determine if I can access and read information with a web
application/service from a PDA attached to a remote client. From my
searches it seems like the answer is yes, but with the obvious need for an
ActiveX control on the client machine.

Any idea on the feasibility of this? I found a number of products but
nothing is an exact fit so a link would be great.

Thanks,
Bill
