    Apparently it is an emulator, with the exception that it can’t write palm os-created documents? Due to “endianness” incompatibility at the moment.

    Sounds cool tho.

      IIRC, it differs from an emulator in that it doesn’t emulate the hardware of a PalmPilot and run the PalmOS firmware and any apps in this emulation, but instead implements the PalmOS APIs in native code and runs only the app code in an emulator. In other words, it’s to an emulator what WINE is to VMWare.
