Take a look at matchbox and gpe on handhelds.org. Both seem like
perfect fits for a 68k mac running NetBSD. I'm working on building
matchbox as we speak on my SE/30, then will move on to gpe. Given
that both projects seem to be targeting linux directly, I may be
posting requesting help porting. Matchbox is in pkgsrc but horribly
out of date.
