Given the memory size of a pocketPC type device, it
is hard to foresee its usefulness as a simulation
machine, don't you think?


I successfully cross-compiled Icarus Verilog to run on a
200 MHz StrongARM with 32M of RAM. It worked fine.
If "useful" means "gets the right answer for small designs",
I suspect this will fit the bill. The OP will still have
to deal with the PocketPC toolchain and targeting, my demo
used Linux as the OS on the StrongARM target. Either that,
or he could convert his PocketPC hardware to run Linux
(http://www.handhelds.org) [1/2 :) ].

I've also seen Icarus Verilog compiled and run on a Xilinx
Virtex-IIPro. OK, so it was running Linux on the on-chip PPC.
Is that cheating?-)
