Could I put a request in for Psion 5mx support?

I know that this platform is now sadly no longer being developed (other
than its Symbian offshoot smartphone format), but it was a very popular 
PDA platform until just a few years ago (Psion pretty much invented the 
PDA concept, after all), and sadly I've not had much luck with it under 
Linux with previous distros (haven't actually tried to get Ubuntu 
speaking to it, sorry).


Thanks,

David.
