The PalmOS is set up to handle up to 256 megabyte cards and a
theoretical 4 gigabytes of total address space.
But the Dragonball cores only have 24 address lines, and so can only
address 16 megabytes.
Currently, system ROM requires separate addresses, forcing an 8 meg card
limit. Now I suppose it would be possible to intercept the low 2
megabytes into ROM and give the user a "14 megabyte" card (like the
Atari did.)
But short of switching to a different 68K core (like ColdFire) or ARM
core, does the PalmOS have any tricks available that would allow
addressing multiple 16 meg address segments?
