There is a lot of people out there who use Palm handhelds and could benefit from Apertium bilingual dictionaries.

There is an opensource application for Palms called PalmOpenDic that can handle dictionaries.

Dictionaries in a rather easy text-like format such as the one used by dict.cc (see the file request page of dict.cc) can be converted with a Java application (for the desktop) inside PalmOpenDic into the Palm database format used by PalmOpenDic.

Apertium bilingual dictionaries could easily be converted to a dict.cc-like format and then distributed with PalmOpenDic.
