The voice, the man, the... machine. That's George Hoffman for you. According to people who have worked with him (including my husband) he is one of the brightest Be, Inc. engineers ever. These days, George works at
PalmSource, Inc. as the Director of Applications and Services. In his free time he sings with an (a cappella) vocal band of 4,
Hookslide (check out their .wmv promo video clip)! In this interview we talk about PalmOS 6, aka Cobalt. We discuss the architecture of the OS, its capabilities, its market targets and more. Screenshots of Cobalt are included.
The tool chain has been ported to BeOS previously. I think it was the old 040 or 050 pre Palm gcc toolchain though. It would have been 68k anyway.
For the record, POSE is 68k only iirc. I would still love to see a port. Please feel free to use SDL and then we can all benefit from it ;-) I'd like to port it to PowerPC personally.
Simulator (ARM PalmOS 5 Simulator) was closed source last time I looked.
