<html><head></head><body>The problem that I see with a virtual keypad (besides the lack of tactile feedback) is that the screen can only handle one button press at a time. Most games require at least a d-pad and action button to be accessible at the same time in order to be playable. Pacman doesn't though :-D.<br><br>Perhaps something workable can be thought up, though. Personally, I thought it might be fun to use the bluetooth connection to talk to a Nintendo Wii controller, but those are as big as the Neo...<br><br>Matt<br><br><table width="100%"><tbody><tr><td bgcolor="blue" width="5"> </td><td>
<p>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.<br><br>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...<br><br><b><i>Mo Abrahams <moabrahams@dashavoo.com></i></b> escribió:</p>
