None of the applications you mention comes in ROM.
Only the eMate has applications in ROM.
You can get everything you need from Unna.
You can load these applications in several ways. Beam
(some don't beam) Modem/network and direct connect.
The beam has some problems with certain copy protected
apps.
The Modem/Network requires some things to be installed
prior to use. The direct connect requires a cable with
the dongle built in or a seperate dongle.
As far as I know, there's no real way of connecting to
the desktop machine via a dialup connection.
There is one other method. That is to have someone
send you a RAM card with these things already
installed so you can just pop it in and you're ready
to go.
