If you're using Apple's developer tools, I don't believe a cross-compile for 1.4 and 10.5 is all that difficult.

While cross-compiling is as easy as changing one setting, unfortunately, we make use of OS X API calls that were added in Leopard so Voluminous would then fail to compile.
The 1.4Ghz recommendation is just that, by the way -- a recommendation. It will run on any machine capable of running Leopard, it's just a question of how patient you are
Voluminous actually runs quite well on slower machines, it just takes longer to start up -- again because of the huge database. We improved the startup time quite a bit during development, and will look at ways of improving this again in the future, but right now our focus is on iPhone support, handling customer service, and so on.
Talking of which, I'd best get on with it instead of chatting on forums!
Thanks for your comments,
