Yes, it can be done; no it isn't easy. The good news is that the
problems you will experience aren't Django related - it's a dependency
problem. In order to run Django, you need to get Python and SQLite
builds for your handheld. Installation binaries for handheld platforms
are not easily found, and using the Windows Mobile compiler toolchain
to produce installation binaries can be a painful process.

Once you have those dependencies compiled, Django works out of the box.

The bad news is that it has been a long time since I did this myself,
I have almost no recollection what combination of voodoo and black
magick was required, and I've changed jobs in the interim, so I can't
check a reference build to give you any guidance. However, I assure
you it can be done.
