I'm going to work on programs to make this useful on a PDA. But first I'm
working on getting rid of X on the root image and adding PicoGUI and its
libraries and themes. It should be easy, but it takes half an hour just to
try out one new root disk (a readonly compressed file system that has to be
installed via the bootloader).
I'd like to get a simple rootdisk running as a platform for custom
applications, such as a database viewer (with a large database stored in the
root disk). Since PicoGUI is so small, larger programs can run in the very
limited amount of RAM that the VR3 has.
