There  are some good java games for movile phone out there  than can be executed with jlimo. I was able to run some games in the dosbox in jlime so I supuse that a lot of oldies pc games can be runned in neo too.

About the key thing, despite we  loose part of the screen, I supose it can be relatively easy to implement an alternative keyboard as the included one but only with 8 directional keypad (this keypad willbe an 8 "swiched" one but can evolve to analogic) and two buttons A B as fire ,jump etc...

that are a little out of the question... although I think that would
need something more powerful than what we have anyway wouldn't it?

Would be very happy to see somebody get 3D working though =)
It could be fun to see how app developers would exploit it, let alone
having 3D games... I was about to say someone should port some gameboy
emulator or something, since we do have 2D, but then the button thing
hit me =P
