Yup. However it removes the requirement to maintain that piece of dying stone age hardware if you still need a few legacy apps that have no Linux or Maemo equivalent.

But using Garnet VM as a PIM is silly - the Palm PIM apps aren't particularily glorious, and even the third party improvements on them are somewhat bland once they lose the total system integration they had on the Palm. In terms of screen estate and PIM capabilities, the Palm was a setback compared to my HP 200LX.
