GVM is just a proof of concept. It's semi-functional.
When it crashes it tends to obliterate all of your Palm data, as well.



GVM doesn't give us access to the individual files on the Nokia.
OK. I think I get this and thank you for the learning. Just some clarification (I am a little dense):

Can a palm applet be written to watch for and do an action, like when there is a sound call from an application? This would be within GVM.
Does GVM access the n800's hardware wifi/bluetooth? Can it send and receive files? Any limitations on this? So send to the net, to my computer, to the n800? is this part stable? Can a GVM applet be written to accept incoming files and do a script on them? Place them, copy over existing file? Can GVM talk with n800 via wifi or bluetooth? Wifi and bluetooth are bi-directional? Sort of like they are both virtual machines within a shared hardware.

If GVM can be stable enough to do these things, which are the only things I really need for it to do, then we are golden! The PC part of the scripts ought be a walk in the park.

If GVM can't do these things then when it can it will be a good thing, until then, it is a successful and interesting proof of concept.

The next non-beta will be a great improvement too! Good work to those that worked on this! Hope GVM's development will continue.

In the mean time I need a DateBook level PIM.
