Well, maybe someone could ask for some support to some
company, let's say HP :-) Because they have support
for Linux handhelds too:

Maybe asking HP Labs .. (Jamey are you there?)

Trying cross compilation:
http://www.handhelds.org/z/wiki/GpeCrossCompilation

Or try the skiffcluster:
http://www.testdrive.compaq.com/systems/#strongarm
http://www.handhelds.org/projects/devcluster.html

I am sure there is a group of people that would test
the packages created.

Is Mono:: too big? Let's make a small version, and
call it Chimpa:: 

Sure we should use the PC or Laptop for development,
and all we need is the rumtime and dll's for the
handheld, and native development could be done using
CF cards.

Have fun,
