From: Richard Steiner on
The folks who purchase the rights to the Palm OS (ACCESS) just released
a piece of software called the Garnet VM which runs PalmOS 5.5.1 for
the three Nokia webtablets (770, N800, and N810).

So far I've gotten a lot of stuff to work from my IIIc including Datebk3
and Datebk4, Calcul-8!, and a whole pile of older games. Yahdice!! :-)

pTelnet and EZftp both work through the 770's wifi connection, which is
somewhat amusing. Don't know how useful it is, though. I can't get my
old copy of Xiino to connect, tho.

Access did not purchase the rights to PalmOS, Access purchased
PalmSource, the original owners of PalmOS. Palm, Inc purchased rights
to PalmOS +from+ Access so they (Palm, not Access) can develop their
own future version of PalmOS.

Confused yet?

Conduits do not work, Access only have the old legacy PIMs.

Have snappy do they run?

Is there allot of apps for this Unix dist?

Have fun.
