I guess you've got two options:

1) write a PECL for interacting with the screen as per the curses or GTK
extensions. This will require specialist knowledge of both PHP and the Palm
API - and a significant amount of C programming
2) use a web browser on the device to access a webservr on the device (there
are at least a couple of webservers written in PHP).

It *should* be possible - last time I compiled PHP5 with SQLite and Mysql,
the output was about 5Mb but stripped, it came out at 1Mb.
