I am very interested on Palm, too; but the other way around.. I am 
finishing a program that would certainly be more useful in a Palm.
By now, I call it "Litteris" ("through letters, in latin) a 
multilingual utility (independent source, target and interface 
languages)
with 4 cards:
1) #2letters: arabic or roman digits to letters  ( 7 languages) or 
roman digits
2) Measures converter
3) currency converter
4) conversation guide to and from any of the languages, with phonetic 
transcription (and audio speech for English)

But I am leaving next week and I will be away for one month or so. I am 
not carrying a computer to camp in Alaska! ;- )
If bears don't  eat me, I will show up last week of July either from 
Houston or from Paris. I am interesed in:

- how to make Palm software out of RR stacks.
- Unicode problems in several languages, especially Esperanto
- Problems connected with internationalization
- Language learning programs (french "didacticiels de langues")
