Well, the options shown on the compatibility settings in gvm are:
Default
Treo 650
Tungsten T3
Tungsten T5
Tungsten T|X
Custom
So that Treo and those Tungstens, at least. Which one? I've no clue.
Someone who knows Palms might be able to tell you which of those is most widely compatible.

I got the power48 HP48/49/50 emulator installed -- and it doesn't work. Worst part is, I have no clue if it's some Palmish thing I'm doing wrong, or if it just catches a shortcoming in the VM.

Can't get it to work. It wants a name or ip address and I really don't know what works.

WRT the calculator ROMs, HP's gone back and forth on that.So I got the emulator from HPcalc.org. And I also got the ROM image for the HP49 in a separate package from HPcalc.org. And, because I wasn't sure what I was doing, I tried starting power48 with no ROM, then again after I loaded the ROM, to make sure that it was seeing the ROM. It failed in different ways, so putting the ROM on did have some effect.
- First, the ROMs were copyrighted, and HP would not license them for distribution. So you had to dump the ROM from your HP calculator (legal, under fair use), and use that.
- Then, HP slackened up and licensed them for free distribution for non-profit use. At that point, most emulators, including power48, distributed them with the emulator.
- Finally, HP revoked distribution with emulators, but permitted free download from HP, and also from other sites. Just not packaged with the emulator.
So for now, I give up. I'm too busy, and tinkering with my N800 wastes too much of my time without an HP emulator.
Still can't wait for ITOS 2008, but I'd better get some work done so I have time for that.
This is a port of Free42, a HP 42S emulator
This program provides a complete re-implementation of this RPN programmable calculator. So it does't need any ROM images to work.
