A plan for using a Palm PDA as a display for a MidiBox

There are ports of J2ME to PalmOS, but they don't have access to the serial port.

  Ah, I remember that now from when I first looked into it.

How about a system where locations of buttons, sliders, "LCD" display, etc and the MIDI command to send are defined in a Memo (or text file linked into the application)?

If you could build that, it would have applications well beyond MIOS!

It would be useful even beyond MIDI, i could use it to control my Linux server.

I've started writing it, currently you can create buttons and labels and when you click on the buttons they display a hex string.  (PalmOS <3.5 doesn't have functions for dynamic UI creation, so i'm doing everything manually.)  I need to rewrite it with a proper parser, instead of my hackish string splitting code.  I can send you a copy of what i have now, or give me a week or so to rewrite it.
