Tapwave Zodiac 2

In case anyone needs a Palm-device or collects failed gaming platforms:

They are sold as 'demo' models, but according to the article they haven't been outside the warehouse.

I have not followed the Tapwave platform, but are there emulators out there for it? If so, it could be a good system just to play all the old games.

yeah, gamingwise I use: ScummVm, Flashback (the old pc game), Nethack (and clones), Castaway (atari st emu), Magnetic Scrolls & Infocom interpreters, C64, Amiga (although its not very good), Noiz2sa, Spectrum and several more.

It also have a very popular multi-emu 'LJP' which is currently being rewritten from scratch.

It covers pretty much all the old consoles.
- Nintendo Entertainment System (NES)
- Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES)
- Nintendo Gameboy/Gameboy Color (GB/GBC)
- Sega Genesis/Megadrive
- Sega Master System (SMS)
- Sega Game Gear (GG)
- Bandai Wonderswan/Wonderswan Color (WS)
- NeoGeo Pocket/NeoGeo Pocket Color (NGP)

For gba emulation you can use the commercial Firestorm. There is also a psx emu, but I haven't bothered trying it. The native Zodiac games, some of which are now freeware, are also pretty entertaining.

I primarily use mine for the Palm Datebook, jpg & mp3, ie. all the boring stuff.

Hmm, did anyone get one from this deal yet? I'm about to order one but I'd like some feedback.

I wish I had $125.

Eh after reading up on the tapland forums a bit I decided to just snag one on eBay. Waiting 4-6 weeks doesn't sound very appealing.

Oooh, ScummVm? I could play Grim Fandango and Sam & Max on it? *drool*

Does anyone know if there is a good Neo Geo console emulator for it? I remember someone on another board saying that they were working on one for it a few years ago. If I could play some KOF and Metal Slug on it, I'd probably break down and buy it.
