Palm CNC

That Robotic Tattooing device mentioned a while back simply came and
went in my mind. Well, at least until I purchased a new Palm Pilot !
I simply cannot believe its capability, and, all of the software
available for this little rascal and so much of it being freeware...

Not being interested in tattoos so much, but, (now) very curious about
any CNC control software that may already exist for Palm. A Google
search turns up all kinds of Palm robotic control but it seems I do not
see anything that could work like the programs we are familiar with even
if it was of a limited level.

I guess what I am asking is if anyone knows of, or has some links to
axis control that could read text files like hpgl or g-code and not just
programming language.
Suprisingly, the programming/development toolkits are really cheap but I
don't know that I've got the smarts to start writing software.

Like I said, this thing just blows me away, and I can only imagine
someone will eventually take this thing right into a dinky cnc control.
I wouldn't mind making a very small engraver powered by Palm Pilots.
