There are PalmOS emulators out there, wouldn't make sense for them to roll their own instead of licensing one of those. I had one on my last Android phone that was a treat for using my beloved old Palm apps.
I suspect the HN crowd's interpretation is correct that they merely replicated the look and feel. Which makes sense - Palm is still the best GUI I've ever been fortunate enough to use.
- ndiddy 3y agoIt's likely that whatever emulators already existed didn't support whatever custom hardware is in place to interface the Palm Pilot with the IMAX projection hardware.
- rkagerer 3y agoFair enough. But I still can't seeing them committing the resources to build an emulator from scratch. It would take ages to achieve stability and work out all the bugs. Anyone doing this would go find a platform that's already 85% of the way there and tailor to fit.
