So today was an interesting day. I am in the middle of looking in the cell phone market for a new phone because my old one broke and I didn't had any insurance. My wife asked her dad about any good cell phone stores around the area when he mentioned he had a phone he wasn't using anymore and that I could have it. I felt good not having to pay for a phone! When my wife brought the phone it was more than I was hoping for. A Treo 650 Palmone that even though it's a little old it just looks so kewl. Look below for a pic.

It does have a little damage that I can probably fix in the future or just buy a case to keep it protected but other than that it works great. I was bored after work today so I started doing some research about emulators for palm smartphones but kept hitting dead links until finally I came around a multi platform emulator.....to make things shorter than they need to be see pic below.....


OHHHH YEAHHH MARIO 8 ON THE GOOOOO BABY!!!! HAHAHAHAHAHHAHA!!
This emulator also plays many other NES games. It's not bad at all!!

Haha, that's awesome!  I wish my phone didn't suck. :'(

I don't really care about cell phones. They're the only piece of technology I don't like or care about. In fact I'm still using the same black&white screen, monophonic ringtone LG SP110 that my parents got me in 2003. It still works, it makes phone calls, why should I replace it?

I AM NOT ALONE!!!
That's exactly my viewpoint on cell phones. Don't replace it if it still works.

Unfortunately most young folks now are cell phone crazy...


Still I'm glad for FF that he can now get his Mario 8 fix on the go. Nice.  8)

My younger brother stood in line from 5:00 until 9:30 in the morning to get an iPhone 3G. :P

I woke up at 4:30, went to university at 5:30, waited until 8:30 to buy an iMac. To sell.

I really don't care about phones at all.

I never liked the G3 but I wouldn't have minded buying one when they came out to make some good profit. This happened with the PS3....man so many people make more than double of what they paid for it.....I didn't had any money back then.

Play movies and listen music is ok, but videogames? Are u try to play a videogame into a cell-phone? It sucks badly. I'm agree with 133mhz and with Manuel, phones are not to play. But it still awesome the tech on those cell to play nes games.

The games don't play that bad. At least it's better than the PSP nes emulator that can't play mario 8. I got this phone for free when my other one couldn't go on anymore so what's wrong with it? it's just an emulator in a phone......

A phone is ment to be a phone to talk to people..

If I want a Camera I have a Digital Cam for that..

If I want to play game I got my GB/GBC & GBA for that..
