R under Pocket PC

The Windows API on Pocket PC is quite a reduced subset compared to full Windows, so you might have problems with that.
But that was. However, as I said, you would have to find a suitable compiler or cross-compiler, that supports enough features (and I suspect IEEE arithmetic would be a problem, especially as it is for VC++ on full Windows). Perhaps you would like to write such a compiler, as technically there's not much to stop you?
The compiler would seem to be there, basically, in the form of gcc ports. Dealing with the platform libraries is the hard thing in my view.
PalmOS would probably be right out. :-)
I think you are belittling the work done to get R running on as wide a range of platforms as it does.
? I only saw a bit of excessive pessimism in that remark.
