Palm Emulation on PPC.

i don't actually have a Palm OS device or a Pocket PC device... but am considering one or the other at some point in the very near future. i personally like the Palm OS better than Windows Mobile... and the selection of applications as well (though that is quickly becoming almost a moot point).

with Windows Mobile 5.0 coming soon... and Pocket PC devices massively outclassing (specs-wise) Palm OS devices on almost a daily basis... and Cobalt nowhere to be seen... a program like this seems to be just one more nudge in the Pocket PC direction. a Palm OS emulator for Pocket PC!

it'll let you run *most* Palm OS apps right on a Pocket PC as if they were native Pocket PC applications.

Applications written for Palm OS® platform show up as native Windows Mobile™-based Pocket PC programs and operate in the same way. You can even cut and paste text and bitmaps between applications and native Windows Mobile™-based Pocket PC programs.


nice. there are some limitations listed on the page... but i am honestly not familiar enough with Palm OS applications to know how many programs would be affected. not bad for $29.
