Actually, the T5 used a 416 MHz Xscale processor, faster than the TX's 312 MHz CPU. The T5 also bested the TX in memory, 256 MB to 128 MB. The TX just finally integrated WiFi.

Yes, Free42 is great. I've used it a bit and the interface and implementation work great. Free42 is also well respected by HP 42 owners (though this implementation has a different layout from the actual calculator (it looks more like a 15c)

Well, I can tell you I've installed in Garnet VM the same version of Power48 I've used on my Palm T5 for years along with the same HP48GX ROM, and in Garnet VM it just doesn't work. So it look as though they're missing something in their T5 emulation.

It appears I'll be carrying my real HP48GX in my briefcase a bit longer.

You bet! I've been using it, but I never had a 42. I had 48/49 of various flavors, so I'd like to get something more like that. Also, the 49s have a good CAS, which I'd like to have.
Still, Free42 is a good solid RPN calculator for calculations, so it's been quite handy.

I guess I may wind up buying an HP50, then. My 49G+ got a broken LCD this past month, and I was hoping to replace it with N800 software.

Well, it's good to know I'm not klutzing something up, anyhow. Thanks!

Maybe the ROM need to be converted, that's what you have to do with Emu48.

That's a good suggestion.

Power48 is based upon Emu48, so it does indeed require that an HP-provided ROM image be converted into a suitable format prior to use. Unfortunately, I did use the Windows-based tool that comes with Power48 to convert the ROM image. Power48 + the converted ROM work on a true T5, but crash in Garnet VM.

Yep. And the T3 has 12MB heap memory, the TX only 4MB as far as I know. The T3 could run certain memory-intensive programs that the TX couldn't. Er, and the T3 had a 400MHz Xscale processor. As sjgadsby says, integrated WiFi is what the TX gave us.
