John M. Dlugosz has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Is there a Perl binary or kit available for Windows CE 3.0 yet? I found some web references but nothing tangable.

    According to CPAN's ports listing, there is a WinCE port at this site. Enjoy !

    Although it's not Windows CE, there is a perl 5.6 port for the Psion 5 series. I've been using it for months on my Revo. It's not really usable for writting handheld applications, but it's great for writing JAPH's and ofusications during long meetings.

    What about the Palm OS?

      Python runs on Palm (an implementation called Pippy). There is none for PalmOS (unless Pippy gets mixed into Parrot somehow :)) )
