Well, with all the stuff being emulated (even windows 95), is it possible to emulate the Windows Pocket PC OS? Sure it uses touch screen but it also has manual navigation functions. I would love to have a pocket pc software on my psp.

PalmOne would be good too.

I beleive the pocket pc software has been made open source recently. and if anyone has visual studio 2002+ they have an emulator for pcoket pc built in there.

Nope. Not going to happen.

**SG57** · 09-07-2006, 02:49 PM

I saw the OS for a Motorla phone as an emulator, open source... Thatd be pretty cool to emulate, but I also realized how pointless it was.....

but emulating a Pocket PC OS would in-turn, create the PSP into a Pocket PC, what with being so 'fit-in-your-pocket'able...

**Bronx** · 09-07-2006, 03:24 PM

I don't think it will happen... Not saying it isn't impossible (as we were all proven wrong with the N64

)
I just believe its hghly doubtful.

**SG57** · 09-07-2006, 03:40 PM

Without any proof then your both wrong, you do know this? Hey, we've emulated an x86 envirorment before... (points to Bochs)

It's actually "you're".

Anyway, whats the specifications of a Palm? I've had a Zire 31 and a Zire 72, but I don't know the CPU speed or RAM.

**Bronx** · 09-07-2006, 04:02 PM

How can I be wrong?? I said it may be possible but doubtful, that pretty much means both

I don't know jack about palm os though... Another reason why this may not be done is because there might not be a dev up to this...

**melterx12** · 09-07-2006, 04:08 PM

the psp definatly has enough power, and the program wouldnt be any harder to port than bochs, but no one seems to want to do it...

Anyway, if we had pcoket pc emulation, wed open a door to a massive (I MEAN MaSsIvE!) amount of "Homebrew". Go on, do a google search for pocket pc software and youll come up with more than you can read in a week straight.

**Grimfate126** · 09-07-2006, 04:11 PM

its not a matter of "can we" but rather a matter of "why should we?"

psp > any portable os thingy or whatever u call it.

**Access_Denied** · 09-07-2006, 05:07 PM

Well, since most of the games require a stylus, most Palm OS games would suck on a PSP. Grimfate126 is right, why should we?

If you want to be completely correct, it should have been, "you both are" "you're both" is just a common slur of the phrase.

Is it possible?
