I wonder if Palm's inability to run Palm OS legacy software isn't 
related to the lawsuits it may generate from Palm OS' new owners Access 
Company who call Palm OS "Garnet" now.

Access gave us Nokia Linux tablet owners a great VM for running your 
software on our Linux tablets under their VM:
http://www.access-company.com/products/gvm/
As you can see, the interface is very familiar in portrait mode.  
Version 2 of the VM really enhanced its capability on the little 
tablets.  Not many Palm OS apps won't run on it.

Palm Desktop syncs it over wifi in seconds to its virtual storage 
resident on my internal 16GB SDHC memory card on the N800 tablet.

What software did you write?  I'd like to look at it under the VM.

Thanks.
