Hello, Unfortunately I didn't have alot of time to really sit down and read it and come up with any really good English equivalent but I just wanted to give you a sumary of http://www.kt.rim.or.jp/~chick/PocketBSD/. Basically it's a small description of the web page writer's life with portables and how he started with a Sharp pokekon (Pocket Console?) and how he moved to a HP-200LX which broke and he moved to a Palm Pilot later. I think he moved to one other platform however my Japanese Reader barfed on this so I can't make out what he was saying on that part. The next part is a description of the Mini Package system that was came up with (not sure if he did it) since he found the Ports collection to FreeBSD very handy however it won't fit on the platform he is using however by stripping away the manual pages and other things a Mini Package could be created which is what you see there and he goes on to describe packages that have been ported to Mini Ports. Notably mutt, smpost, a Japanese IME and Perl4. Unfortunately there's not alot of HW specs or technical details of that sort on the page that might be able to help. Hope that might help. Sorry for the very rough description but time time time.
