Squeak on PS2?

Just wondered if anyone had got around to playing with Squeak on PS2
yet: 

Sony have been selling some development kits to enable them to run their
Linux -- they appear to have been using Linux in games development for
some time -- (there is a further port of Linux to PS2 under development
-- a non-Sony "PS1" port is already out there).

These things are now cheaper and more omnipresent than PCs: there's even
talk of one NGO using them to further its underdeveloped
world/IT/Internet connectivity/education strategies. 

While they won't have the portability of Palms and iPaqs, there are
relatively few childrens' (and adults'!) bedrooms without them in the
developed world.

(Bet AK could borrow one from Sony US "for development purposes"!)

Cheers
