not true :) 

ok.. PalmSource doesn't want you to know it supports native ARM - and
they prefer you use PceNativeCall() to do any ARM programming.. however..
now.. let me look :)

  'amdc0000.bin'   <-- code0001.bin in 68k? :P
  'amdd0000.bin'   
  'amdi0000.bin'

i wonder what those resources are for :) i happened to stumble across
a download recently that didn't even contain anything 68k :) even the
user interface resources were different:

  'afrm03e8.bin'   <-- tFRM0e38.bin? in 68k? :P
  'aalt03e8.bin'   <-- Talt0e38.bin? in 68k? :P
  'aalt03e9.bin'   <-- Talt0e39.bin? in 68k? :P

now now :) if only i had time to explore more - hell, we even have a 
-LE option within the resource compiler now dont we? *g* oh i wish i 
had more time on my hands *g* i would assume that these binaries are 
produced by ADS or so.. but, technically, should be possible to write 
pure native code on ARM *g* - calling API's isn't too bad from native 
ARM, but, you'll be pushing your limits; and, most likely your code 
wont work on all devices :)
