Sure, but why do you need a bootloader?
All you need is to change some parameters.

Write the control section to work from variables stored in EEPROM.
On first boot, write some default values to EE.
Then you'll need a section that talks through the UART to the Palm, to a program you've written there (NSBasic is pretty easy) that accepts and stores new values for the variables.
