The WebOS (the OS that runs on Palm's devices) uses JavaScript as it's primary development language. You can code raw javascript against the DOM in the webview, or use Palm's JavaScript library & toolkit called Mojo, which implements all of the standard UI controls, lists, etc. There will soon be a Plugin Development Kit as well, which gives you a straight C+Linux+OpenGL API based on SDL, for the times you really need low level access (ex: OpenGL 3D games).
