Sorry for my ignorance but I know almost nothing of bluetooth and can't seem
to find a straight answer to my question of whether I can connect my
bluetooth enabled pocketpc to my wireless home network.
Thanks for any direction you can send me.

Can't do it unless you have a Bluetooth access point or USB connector - the
latter can be bought on eBay for less than $40. Not sure, but you may only
be able to connect to the host computer with those....

No.
Bluetooth does not talk to 802.11*.
You'd ned some sort of bluetooth adaptor on a PC.
