What? Win95 on the N95?

That seems fairly unlikely but if so then it should work as well on Maemo assuming the same emulation tools exist.

Classic example of arbitrary Nokia decision making. Couldn't just fallback to the no brainer of tagging with lat/lon if network isn't accessible, could you Nokia?

ROFL "After seven minutes the background appears". "I shouldn't click on start because it doesn't load after 15 minutes of waiting."

The ability to discern the difference between "can run" and "should run" is clearly in short supply here... Look at jjx's analysis on the previous page, and that's your answer.

Exactly, this is what I've been saying, and what I believe was the approach used by Darwine.

There has been a steady stream of patches to Wine to allow Winelib to compile in ARMEL, which might mean good news. (not if you're trying to run win32 .exe files ).
