You can actually run X on the Zaurus, in which case you have a nearly complete no-brainer. You do need an expansion card though. Qt for R is not in the cards currently, as far as I know. The cross-platform/licensing issues makes it a bit unappealing. R isn't all that big, unless you use it for big things: about 60MB on the disk, and 20MB initial RAM usage, on a PC. >The Windows API on Pocket PC is quite a reduced > subset compared to full Windows, so you might have problems with that. > PalmOS would probably be right out. :-) Wouldn't rule those out even, we do have at least some bitmap drivers. In all cases, I suspect that the small screens would require some usability rethinking. You need to have the item in hand to really know what to do, I suppose. -- O__ ---- Peter Dalgaard Blegdamsvej 3 c/ /'_ --- Dept. of Biostatistics 2200 Cph.
