There's the Python port to the Palm Pilot. That might be a good place
to start... Don't know how small your box is, but the Pilot is a
68000 kind of CPU with 8MB RAM. I was shown a copy of it at a recent
LUG meeting, and it doesn't look too bad, but is still missing some
things (floats? forms).
Try:

Sorry I can't give you more advice, my palmtop has a 300MHz CPU, 200MB
of RAM, and a 20GB drive. ;-)
