Wow, Anthony, this is a harsh environment there! Why did not you move to
another hotel?
Anyways, I hope this will warm you up a little bit: yes, there is a
solution that involves RealVNC desktop sharing software
http://www.realvnc.com
You would have to install the VNC server on your desktop and VNC client,
such as this one:

on your pocket PC. The Pocket PC will have to be connected via a LAN or a
WLAN to the desktop PC.
It is probably not going to be too convenient just because of the lack of
the screen real estate on your PDA, but at least you can do something
without catching a flu.
Good luck!
