I don't have anything on the fly.  But I purchased the MrSid SDK from
LizardTech ($500)  that will convert SIDS to Tiffs then use some ImageMagick
Script to convert the TIFS to 8 bit color map.  Based on an 8 Meg sid it
makes 150 Meg Tiff (3 minutes each), which converts to about a 55 Meg 8 Bit
(3 minutes) colormapped tif.

Its about a 6 minute process per file.  And it takes quite a bit of storage.
But hey it works.

Not sure if this helps.  But its an implementation.  $500 + ImageMagick +
some script writing...non on the fly.

If you find something else, I'd like to know about it.

  Anyone have any ideas on how to integrate Mr SID with a mapserver or
mapscript application? Any good "on the fly" mr sid converters out there?
