For us to give a useful answer, you might need to provide more
detail on issues such as memory space, processor "int" size, 
and so forth.

Python has been ported to the Palm Pilot, and runs on embedded x86
devices based on the PC-104 standard (meaning they're a lot like
older PCs), and some other small devices.  Do you envision anything
much different?
