Yes, he mentioned to me that there wasn't going to be any further development of
the PalmOS 3.x/4.x version for Motorola Dragonball processors as he'd taken it
as far as it could go, but there would be new development of a PalmOS 5 version
for ARM. (Genius engines of whatever flavour are written in machine language,
and I presume he will be able to port the PocketPC ARM version).

I presume the new v1.55 of the Motorola version has been released so that it
will work with the Motorola "compatibility mode" in PalmOS 5, and the ARM
version will be 2.0 or similar.
