Hi,

The last time I was at the FTP site I noticed a sub-directory for PalmOS.

Who's working on this version?

Which Palm machiens dose it work on?

Do you need alpha-testers?

Is anyone working on a WinCE version?

I am thinking about buying a handheld and I am trying to decide which kind to buy.

Live long and prosper,

Karin E. Hacker

Florian, but he has had very little time to do any FPC-related work lately.

I don't know.

I thought there was a snapshot you could download on the ftp server, but I can't find it anymore :/

Is anyone working on a WinCE version?

Not that I know of.

I too was trying to help with the PalmOS port, but have sadly run short of time. When I can I'll get back to it.

As for which is better Palm vs WinCE, that turns into a flame war in a hurry, the truth is it depends on what you plan to use the device for... Email me privately and I'll discuss it with you (I have 3 Palm devices and 1 CE device) and I do development for both types of units. I can also give you info on running linux on the two types of devices.
