Scaling Writelog down would be a major effort, but
On a lark, I did do exactly as you want:

Pocket PC 2002 (Toshiba E740)
-PocketDOS DOS Emulator (www.pocketDOS.com)
CT (now free)
Socket CF Serial Port (for Radio Control & Keying)
(You may already have serial port)
Mini USB Keyboard (for easy typing)

It works great!

Has anyone thought of scaling down WriteLog for use on a PocketPC or PDA?

This could be absolutely incredible if no rig control, but only contesting
logging, dupe checking & cw keying is needed.

No hauling around a computer for FD...just stick the PPC or PDA on top of
the transceiver & use xkeys or other macro devices to trigger F key
functions.  All you need to see is the QSO window.

Mega-Portable.  Efficient.
