[REBOL] Re: Embedded REBOL (Re: Population of PDA Users)

From: chrismorency:videotron:ca at: 12-Apr-2001 19:18

Hi Ryan, Unfortunately Linux suffered major blows lately regarding PDAs in the news / reviews. Yes, although I have several WindowsCE/PalmOS/EPOC devices, I still hope Linux will find it's way on PDAs. As for the VR6, I don't know, you might be interested in reading what Brighthand.com had to say about the VR3 : http://www.brighthand.com/html/otherpdas/agenda_page1.html, doesn't sound good so far. Last I hear, Yopi was not going to see it through productions... and the only ones who seems to pull it off might be Compaq : http://www.handhelds.org/ with their linux-oriented PDA projects including flashing PocketPC iPaqs with Linux ;) but it's still a risk, you could loose your device in the process... But to get back at Rebol, I tried the Change Benchmark available at www.rebol.org and it (the script not revol) crashed with a stack overflow ??? I wanted to evaluated Rebol's speed under some WindowsCE devices... I'll have to take a look at the code and see what's the problem... Best, Chris
