google apps on thin clients

i just discovered this google service for simplifying and reformatting web pages for mobile devices: http://www.google.com/gwt/n looks like it would be very handy for pdas, phones, and ancient laptops on life support that i can't throw away. i also hope to get the official google mobile stuff (http://mobile.google.com/) working on my zaurus 5500. it's just java, and someone apparently made the .jar work with an ibm jvm for a pocket pc. (http://www.downloadsquad.com/2006/11/06/how-to-run-gmail-locally-on-a-pocket-pc/) maybe i can do the same thing with the built-in jvm on my zaurus. in case i can't get that working, i might be able to use this: http://sourceforge.net/projects/gmail-mobile/ i would need to get php for the z, though. [EDIT] looks like the gmail-mobile project is for html<->wml translation/filtering, not for offline reading and editing. too bad. i did manage to snag the mobile gmail java app with wget. (google puts up a bit of a fight because it wants to get your system info, i guess to send you the right version.) looks like it needs some java microedition libs for handling midlets. these posts look like they might be helpful: http://www.oesf.org/forum/index.php?showtopic=17019&st=0 http://www.oesf.org/forum/index.php?showtopic=15610 according to google support, the gmail mobile app requres j2me with midp2. the me4se.jar refered to in the oesf posts has incomplete support for midp2, but one of the posters indicates that classes can be extracted from midp-2_0-src-linux-i686.zip in the midp developer kit. or get everything from here. i'm still not sure, though, if the gmail mobile app will let me have some offline capability or if it's just replacing a web browser with a jvm. maybe google desktop instead? or google gears?
