The nokia internet tablets look intriguing as platforms for Oberon, 
especially as they are linux based.  What would be involved with getting 
Oberon to run on them?

Perhaps among the possibilities -

1. a port of the version for Strong-ARM processors. 
2. a port of x86 Linux oberon
3. Native Oberon for Linux
4. OberonScript (http://www.ralphsommerer.com/obn.htm) - Ralph 
Sommerer's "scripting language and runtime system for building 
interactive Web Client applications."

Anyone thinking / working on this?

Regards,

Antony
