I'm not sure an old Palm is up to the task. It probably does not have python.

Yep. Seems to work quite OK, even for large databases.

Yes, unless you want to spend a lot of time rewriting the relevant parts 
(mainly the scheduler) in a different language.

Not necessary. The Windows Mobile client uses the native Gui toolkit, wrapped 
in python bindings (http://ppygui.sourceforge.net/)

If something similar exists for a (jailbroken) iPhone, you're in business.

If there are no python bindings for the iPhone GUI toolkit, another option for 
disconnected use is to have a little python mnemosyne webserver running on the 
iPhone that only allows local connections.

Plenty of possibilities :-)
