[Mono-list] Mono / C# on PDAs

[Stefan Matthias Aust]

Hi!

I bought myself a Sharp Zaurus SL-5500G (a Linux based PDA with the 
usual pocket PC stats and a small extending-keyboard).  I'd like to 
program for that machine and I'm looking now for interesting and 
productive languages.  All I know right know is that I will not use 
C/C++.  I bought it also because of its Java support, but PersonalJava 
is an old standard and its not really integrated with Qt/Qtopia.

So I thought that C# (Mono plus qt#) might be a good alternative, 
especially if it would support jitted code.  Is there any chance to use 
Mono?  Does the jitter already support ARM instructions?  Would it be 
too large and/or too slow for programs?  I think, Microsoft has a 
special mobile .NET version (stripped down runtime libraries, don't 
know?).  Will mono support this, too?


bye
