Blogwalking with the Zaurus

I'm still thinking about the Blogwalking on a Zaurus. My idea at this point is to stick with plain text files for weblog entries, ala Blosxom, but to roll my own system. I don't have any present need to post entries from the road, so I'm thinking that a desktop app that detects when a docked Zaurus, retrieves the entries, and posts them using the Blogger API will do the trick nicely. Most of the code that I need can be re-used from Pocket Blog...

As far as the Zaurus keyboard goes, last night I used it to type an 812 word entry for my personal journal. It wasn't any worse on my hands than a typical hand-written entry of 300-ish words and the finished entry had just one typo. I'm happy enough with that.
