It's pretty fucking tasty, it really is. Beats the poo out of Pocket64 on the PPC.

Very cool! Which emu is that? (I don't have a Palm.) Does the 71% mean it's running at 71% full speed?

For the PocketPC, I can HIGHLY recommend Pocket C64 http://www.clickgamer.com/moreinfo.htm?pid=4

Now I wish I did have a Palm. What specifically about it is better than Pocket64 on PPC?

I dunno what that % is, but it's not speed. It goes at full welly no matter what I do to it. Drool. Dribble.

It beats Pocket64 in a couple of ways, mainly cleanliness and smoothness of emulation. There's an ickle on-screen joystick in the bottom right, which is very usable as well as being able to use the D-Pad. (The fact that the T2 has a circular, microswitched D-Pad is another Big Up on the PPCs, IMHO). Configuration and installation is painless, and it's Generally Nice Er, what else? Um... it's not running under WinCE ;)

Oh - and it's free, unlike Pocket64.

Ahem!

I'd like to take this opportunity to say: Thank You Mr Minter, again, for all the 8bit pieces of heaven you've given us, still valid at 2004! And thanks for any Frodo implementors / porters lurking out there...

It's really a spledid way to waste some time by booting up a Frodo on Nokia 3650 and start "playing" Psychedelia.

So, Bog: enjoy your palm c64! :)

They used micro-switches there? Didn't expect that, I've been used to mushy Palm buttons for years now. That was something I absolutely love about the GP32, the great micro-switch mini-joystick.

What actually happened to your original Tungsten (the one that was stolen)? Just got a new one?

Cool!

How about putting together a llamasoft game + emu compilation for various phones and PDAs - could sell at a reasonable price and generate a bit of revenue..

Can you get any emus for the SE T610 ?? I'd imagine not, the screen is not really big enough, but i'd still be cool :)

Yup. It's nice and clicky. It's a smidge fiddly (big hands, tiny computer), but it works pretty well.

Let's hear it for insurance :) Wander into Dixon's, hand vouchers over, walk off with new T2. One of my other fave things about the Palm is that if you've got an empty one (be it new, or if you've been very silly and run it completely flat, which is hard to do), you drop it in the cradle, sync, and everything goes back on in a single sync - I seem to recall rebuilding my iPaq's toolset was a bit of a performance.

<edit>

Now that I'm working Frodo a little harder, I'm finding occasionall places where it's not 100%... the collision detection in Cauldron2 is pretty much non-existant, and some games exhibit Weird Behaviour.

Still! It's still in dev, so we'll see what happens :D

Like I said, I'm not going back to PocketPC until its finished.
