PalmORB
=======
Is it sane to use the Palm device as a simple status display? I'm not sure.
But it is possible with the PalmORB [1]. What it does: "PalmOrb is software
that allows you to use your PalmOS device as a LCD status display for your
computer! ... PalmOrb works by pretending to be (or emulating) a real LCD; a
Matrix Orbital LK204-25 LCD" (description taken from [1]).
Well, some software on the PC side is necessary and thus it is limited mostly
to Linux/Windows computers (no IRIX support, I assume). On the Palm side,
anything that run at least Palm OS 2.0 should be OK.
By the way, do you know the Palmorama [2]?
