Assuming you have views/generic.jsonp
you need to enable it for remote requests:
def get_devices():
response.view = 'generic.jsonp'
devices = [r.hostname for r in db().select(db.device_status.hostname)]
return dict(devices=devices)
Then you need to call it with
jQuery.getJSON("http://.../get_devices.jsonp&callback=?";, function(data) {
displayList(data);
}).error(function() { alert("error"); })
I did not try but should work.
