hi,
  I asked the simputer guys, but they are not ready to
disclose anuthing. Also, IMHO, simputer has not
picked up well. It's still not in the market so forget
taking a copy of it. Also, by what i believe, simputer
folk do not want it to be palm. The idea is that a simputer
will be shared by many person of the village, and each will
have a smart card, which carries the equiv. of his ~/.*rc.
 
that's all i know about simputer.
even Raj's simputer list is dead

hello,
I am doing palm programming for about an year now.
I liked the idea of a emulator for simputer .
I dont know yet how to program on simputer ,
what are the api's for it ..
If it is a X-window system can we port swafish or enlighment window managers to it.
or say a simle gcc would build a .o file
but how to upload or say Sync a file from pc to simputer and vice versa
 
Please write something about it
