No, you're not, it's only because I made the assumption (which I still hold)
that you do not have enough memory on the Palm to host the Ada compiler
there (be it executed by the JVM).

Have a look at a typical GNAT executable (not including the runtime), you
will see that it is unlikely to go under 8MB (or even 16MB) of size.

On the other hand, a Forth compiler takes typically 50kB on the Palm, that's
why I suggested using this language instead for on the road programming.
