It also works on my Palm Vx, and my friend's Palm V. By which I mean that the application my company is building has BitmapFamilies which only include the 8-bit colour versions of the bitmaps, but when my Vx is set to 4-bit greyscale and I display the image, it gets automatically converted to 4-bit greyscale, and when my friend's V is set to 2-bit greyscale and he displays the image, it gets converted to 2-bit greyscale. I think that the automatic conversion is an "OS >= 3.5" thing, as both my Palm Vx and my friend's Palm V are running 3.5.3.
