UMN gopherd is pretty much dead, but depending on your proclivities,

Python fiends like pyGopher: gopher://gopher.quux.org/ Perl demons might like Bucktooth (shameless plug): gopher://gopher.floodgap.com/

Both of these are relatively small and should fit within the firmware confines of an embedded system like this (you may need to cross-configure Bucktooth on a bigger box and import the outputted object, though).
