I too had Csound on the Sharp Zaurus and it was very, very slow.  I
would imagine all platforms would have the same issues of not having a
floating point processor which really slows things down.  Blackberry
wouldn't be possible as it's an all-Java device and as far as I know
there is no way to do coding in C for it.

My guess is that like my experience with the Zaurus the novelty wears
out fast.  On the other hand, I just bought an Acer Aspire One and
it's a much faster computer than I expected.  Very light and portable,
and I can run blue with csound and render my work in realtime.  I'd
highly recommend one of these for on the go Csound work. =)
