In case some people are interested, I would like to point out
the eQip project (www.qnxzone.com/eQip), which have for goal
to build a PDA system on top of the QNX Real-Time OS ... There
is much to do still, but we have a specification document that
you may want to check, we also have the basic OS running on an
iPAQ.
As a contributor to this project, I tried to put in it all the
goodies of NewtOS I enjoyed.
Regards,
jean-louis
