Thanks for your interest in the Gameboy emulator!  I just wanted to bring all of you up to date on what's been going on.

Actually, after 6 months of being to busy to work on it, I finally have a beta version working with Tetris.  I had to completely rewrite the code for speed -- It's tight on a Pilot.  The emulator is 100% assembly language, hand-tuned and runs close to full speed on a regular "Palm OS Device" (I personally liked "PalmPilot" better, but oh well).

Speaking of names, the working title of the emulator has changed from 'PalmBoy' to 'Gambit'.  What do you think?

I've had LOTS of interest from people (no real surprise there), but what was surprising was where some of that interest came from. More on that later...

Anyway, I'm sorry to say I can't distribute any beta copies of the emulator at this time, but as soon as I have more news, I will let you know!  I am hoping real soon....
