This is not a complaint but rather a question about the current state of emulation the nokia tablets. Why does there seem to be a lack of interest on emulation and a lack of good emulation on the NITs? I know there is a thread about compiling snes9x and a gba and nes emulator available but no one seems to ever talk about them, update them, or encourage the development of such emulators on these devices. With the hardware keypad of the N810 there should be a decent button scheme that could exist and the 400 mhz processor and 128 megs of ram I would think would be adequate enough to do some decent emulation of the 8 bit and 16 bit systems with the help of frameskip etc.
I'm sure I'm probably over simplifying it a bit and outside of PHP and some other scrripting languages I don't have a whole lot of experience with programming but if it's possible on the gp32 and gp2x then I assume the n8x0 could work out. I'm thinking about getting a wiz or the pandora when they come out but if the emu scene picked up in the slightest then I might stick with the n810 (yes I know.. who cares, right?). I'm sure I'm not the only one who thinks this though. If anyone has some decent insight into this or maybe even some links to an emulation scene that has escaped my eyes it would be be greatly appreciated.
