| Just saw this on the Web yesterday:
http://www.styletap.com/
The site says that it is compatible all the way back to Pocket PC 2000. For those of us (including myself ) who still like to tinker with Palm OS apps from time to time, this could be a way to do so without having to put our H/PCs down - assuming that it can be made to work in H/PC 2000 and/or CE 4.x .net. Unlike CoPilot, it doesn't appear to require a Palm OS ROM image installed in the Windows CE device. |

| Well, stingraze still has a link on his site (Pocket PC Tweakies ) for a freeware Palm OS emulator called Pocket Palm. I haven't gotten it to work thus far on either of my H/PC 2000 devices (tried all the aygshells & other DLLs from cmonex' site ); it does work to some degree at least on my Aero 1550, but it requires a Palm OS ROM image (though that's included in the download ) and a lot of free RAM besides, and it's pretty slow. Lots of bugs still to work out of it. |

| I think I may try a program on my Piddle PC.. I forget how much RAM mine has.. It makes me mad that you cannot adjust RAM between storage memory and program memory in WM5.. |

all your RAM is for programs on that ppc.
the storage is all ROM.
so why would you be able to adjust it ? there's nothing to adjust. |

Yeah, there's a gx.dll file included in the download as well. No help, though.
I'm glad to hear StyleTap works in H/PC 2000 - especially for your favorite game. |

| Cmonex, you underestimate me :-) I've checked their page and there's no sign which CPUs StyleTap run on. "I have a bad feeling about this", 'coz that usually means that it's ARM only :/ |

| As I said in my first post, the page does say that it runs on OSs as far back as Pocket PC 2000. To me, that suggests a strong likelihood that it works with MIPS processors as well. |

| I'd like to know how to make Styletap work on my Jornada (HPC 2000)...if you could help me...
Thanks |
