R help - Aug 2002 - Is there a way of getting R up and running on an IPAQ 3870?

Hi,

I was wondering (as a trawl has not turned up anything) whether anyone
has any ideas regarding this matter? Does a version exist? Has anyone
been able to compile such a version? Any pointers would be most welcome,
as the ability to put an IPAQ to really productive use would be great.
Alternatively does anyone know of any other similar software to carry
out EDA and small scale post hoc analyses on these devices (free or
reasonably priced - I'm a poorly paid Civil Servant who's just shelled
out hard earned cash on this thing)?

TIA

Mike

I understand an IPAQ runs a version of Windows CE aka Pocket Windows?
If so

1) We don't know of a suitable compiler.
2) I believe that even under Linux on that or similar hardware there are
problems with floating-point support.

So, it needs someone with a lot of time to get it working, I guess.
