Python runs fine on ARM-based PDAs running Linux -- see
http://www.vanille.de/projects/python.spy for info and a surprising amount
of ARM binaries. Note that the packages are in ipkg (.ipk) format.  These
are similar to Debian's .deb files, and you can get at the contents using
tar a couple of times.
