Maybe someone of you is interested in porting battle of wesnoth to our pocket pc - this is a GPLed strategy gamy wich uses sdl and has a tiny mode for use with small screens (QVGA) wich mode runs on gp2x - (the gp2x hardware is very similar to pocket pc but runs linux)

Hello,
before i bought my new gadget HTC Diamond, i used a Nokia.
Now i miss a Software for flip via BT the slides from a powerpoint presentation.
Is there a extra programm for this feature ?

hi!
if you're running vista as presentation host you can use windows
sideshow. a developer preview of sideshow for windows
mobile has been released just a few weeks ago. just google for it.
this app is very usefull for presentations, even the next slides
are displayed etc.
hope this helps!
Hi! I can very much recommend Salling Clicker (www.salling.com) although the developer is lazy in updating the software. You can control a lot of applications including Power Point with bluetooth or wifi. Works with Windows and Mac. There are mobile clients for Windows Mobile, Java, S60, etc.
currently i work with win xp - so i try Salling Clicker ( shareware ) for the first step.
thx
Daniel
Bluetooth remote control works very well too:

I have looked through many forums recently, and I have yet discovered at starcraft game for the pocket pc. I have finally realized that pocketDOS won't do the trick, because it is build upon 8-bit architecture while starcraft/warcraft was build upon 16-bit plus extended memory requirements.
After that I discovered that someone got warcraft II working on a PPC. To do this they used stratagus for pocket pc and then converted the original warcraft-game in wargus. I looked further and I discovered stargus (starcraft) which is also running on the same engine (stratagus).
AND...I wonder if someone on this forum would make stargus work with the stratagus pocket pc engine??
I even think people would pay to have starcraft on their PDA
PS: I'm a noob on programming myself so don't yell if i am totally wrong here..and my English is probably bad
Starcraft is a Win32 x86 32bit at-least 800x600 protected mode application using DirectX - I don't think it will run on any WiMo 640x480 PPC within the next 10 years unless someone finds impressive amounts of spare time to emulate an entire x86 Win32 environment along with DirectX...
there goes my dream...
thanks for the help anyway...
I've been struggling for the past 2, 3 months to find GOOD games for my xperia (3d graphics good performance appealing) I played experiment 13 (best so far) but thats about it, xtrakt really isn't as good as it is said to be. So i was thinking would it be possible to make a nintendo ds emulator or something similiar, ds would be perfect since it is very similar to xperia gaming, you touch on one place on the screen and press hardware buttons, (metroid for example would be the PERFECT xperia game, you walk around with w on the hardware keyboard aim with stylus and shoot with space or camera button or volume key) I know it's a long stretch but would it be impossible? Do you guys think the x1 hardware can handle that. if not is it impossible to modify the game itself to run as .exe or something, I've seen a guy run halo 1 on the xperia for gods sake (its on youtube) so it should be possible... also who remembers those classic shooting games that we played at the arcade, where you just aim and shoot as your character moves by himself through the levels? wouldn't that work great on the xperia as well?

i dont know where to find a DS one though but theres a GBA one listed there
One would think an ARM smartphone @ 528Mhz could be able to emulate the DS since it's also an ARM device (ARM7 33Mhz + ARM9 66Mhz) so there's not much emulation needed, but from my limited programming experience (3 courses in Java) i say it's not simple to code an emulator.. but the DS would be a interesting device to try to emulate, but except the dual ARM CPUs there's additional hardware needed to emulate...
Not to mention the dual screens would pose a problem, but that's less of a problem since a lot of games can be played only looking at 1 screen, one could maybe have the 2nd screen as a miniature at the side, since there would be some space left at a widescreen since the DS is 4:3.
But all that would be a long way to go...
(About the Halo 1 port.. THAT'D be impossible to "just run" by a few tweaks... i'm 100% certain it's fake and that you got fooled, probably a video of Halo 1 running at the Xperia.)
Me though, i'm hoping/waiting patiently for a WiiMote driver for Windows Mobile, that'd be awesome for NES/ other older consoles + some SNES games that doesn't require constant use of shoulder buttons... oh, as well as native WinMob games that support mapping.
This is pretty neat.

Thread to download the ISO and UNetBootin
Its pretty simple to do
I have a XP Pro machine with a Lilliput touchscreen. Anyone have any idea if there would be a driver out there for the 7" lilliput. This used to be my in car PC.
There are apps that allow you to control your Android device from your PC (ShareKM, WebKey, etc). But the J5 Wormhole also enables file transfers. It also works with other Windows PCs and iPads, even though it's not listed as compatible. There is no lag and it makes my N7 tons more useful.
You'll need a USB OTG connector, but those can be found in abundance all over the web.

They also have a pretty cool looking Android Mirror, which lets you control your Android device on your Windows PC. I haven't had a chance to test it yet, but I'm sure it works as great as the wormhole switch.
