  No, I haven't even tried, mostly focusing on embedded linux devices.
We do have win32 support, but I thought the windows mobile API wasn't
the same. We typically have been using GTK on win32, and not the native
gui, but for a UI, you don't really need the gui.

  You'd likely have problems doing streaming video (youtube) with only
64M, most of my hardware has 128M, so I'd have to test. Gnash already
supports the PPC, big or little endian, 32 or 64 bit. Do you have any
hardware accelerated graphics (opengl) or hardware video decoding
support ? Framebuffer or bitmapped screen ?
