Django on a Windows PDA
This is one of the coolest Django hacks ever.
Marxy writes that he's gotten Django running on a Windows Mobile 5 PDA.
Although I won't be switching my various Django production servers from Linux to Windows PDA any time soon, it's cool to see that this is possible, and it's a testament to Python's flexibility. Plus, it could even come in handy for developers of PDA applications. Nice hack, Marxy!

As a longtime Palm user it just kills me to see stuff like this. On the Palm we have Python... 1.5.2!

What would you use django on a hand held device for?

Nicely done!

Thanks folks.
I was interested to see if it was possible. An idea that occurred to me was to "mobilise" an application by having a version on the pda that is syncd with the server database from time to time.
Farcaller, can you give some more info about how you run this on a Palm? I was a palm user but got sick of the lack of evolution of the platform.
