Hi All,
I've just released the version 1.0.5 of the PSP TI-92 calculator.
Computation errors have been found in previous versions of the emulator, and for example ln(x) function gave false results for x < 1.0.
After a long period of bug tracking, errors have been found in 12 instructions of the 68000 processor emulator.
Those bugs were present in the original source code of Xtiger and they are all fixed now.
This version works with 2.xFW. and 1.5FW.
It's distributed under GNU licence and sources are included.
Enjoy, 
Zx.

Hi all,
Here is a new release of the HP48 emulator for PSP.
There is no major change, only a bug fix for FW 2.0, so there is no need to update/download only if it wasn't working before on your PSP.
CousinWeb gave me his PSP today with a FW 2.0 and i've fixed the bug that froze PSPX48 at startup (Many thanks to him !)
As always, the package is under GPL Copyright and sources are included.
As PSPXTI v1.0.4, for me this is the final release, i won't work any more on this homebrew (only if major bugs are found).
The new README file included in the archive should answer most of all your questions. 
Enjoy,
Zx.

Hi All,
I've just released a new version of the PSP TI-92 calculator. We can now load basic and asm programs (.92x files) directly in this emulator.
I've modified the key mapping, and function keys are now usable with the keyboard cursor, using analog pad.
A simple game (basic arkanoid ancestor) is given as an example in this archive. You have to press select + L1 + R1 to enter in the file selector, choose the file you want to load in your TI-92 emulator. Then enter the name of the program you want to run (ex: arkanoid() ), or use the VLINK menu of the TI-92 (2nd + minus key).
I've tested this version only with 2.5FW. Nevertheless a 1.5FW version (generated using upspear 0.15) is also available in this archive.
Enjoy,
Zx.

Edit: If you want this emulator working with TI92+ Rom, a hint is given in this thread.

Hi all,
XTiger is an unix emulator (under X Window) of a TI-92 calculator (Texas instruments).
It was originally written by Jonas Minnberg and was closed source.
Jonas Minnberg has not worked on XTiger for quite a while and he gave Misha Nasledov the code and permission to GPL it.
I've sucessfully modified and port the source code of the 0.8 version using PSPSDK environment.
It's now working fine on PSP !
The package is under GPL Copyright and sources are included.
I've tested it only on PSP with FW 2.5 using Fanjita GTA loader, but it seems to work also on 2.x, and a 1.5 FW version is also include (generated using upspear 0.1).
Many TI92 stuff can be found on the following urls :
http://www.ticalc.org, and on the texas instruments web site http://education.ti.com
You need the rom of your TI-92 or TI-92 plus, but it is NOT part of the PSPXTI package because it is the property of Texas Instruments !
Enjoy,
Zx.

Lavod Corporation has announced that it has a pair of MP3 players ideally suited to those of you who feel no need to distinguish between serviettes and toilet paper.
Indeed, the PocketPlay 320 and 350 are designed to appeal to fans of combining things, offering as they do the opportunity to listen to music (in the 350's case, WMAs as well as MP3s) and play 8-bit Sega games on their 2.4-inch TFT displays.
As you can see from the picture both are dinky little devices but, rather as you do when you reach for Bounty-the-stronger-soaker-upper following the expenditure of Andrex, once you cross purposes you will discover surprising depth to the proposition. (Metaphorically speaking, they'd certainly block the loo.)
That's because the 320 offers 20 Sega games and the 350 offers 10. These include the likes of Sonic Chaos, Ecco the Dolphin, Sonic Spinball, Columns and Fantasy Zone. Both have TV outputs too, so they're practically consoles. The 350 also features an SD Card slot and a USB 2.0 port.
Lavod's press release doesn't mention pricing, but apparently both will be available from various distributors in Germany, Switzerland and Austria from April, so you might be able to track them down through grey importers.
Or, if you actually do harbour some misplaced desire to scratch a retro itch and you're not just reading this far to see if I can do any more crap jokes, you could just buy one of the many Sega compilations for your existing consoles instead. Since they will almost certainly be cheaper and better.
You won't be able to play them on the loo, obviously, but then not everything you do in the lounge or kitchen has to be, does it?

I found following link in the forums:
http://www.badongo.com/file/276621
Apparently someone is working on the GALAGA mod.
Currently it's not 100% complete - some graphics, music and enemy patterns are not modified, but it already looks nostalgically cool :-)
Check it out ...

Hi all,
X48 is an unix emulator (under X Window) of the famous HP48 GX calculator.
It has been written many years ago by Eddie C. Dost in C langage.
I've sucessfully modified and port the source code of the 0.4.0 version using PSPSDK environment. It's now working fine on PSP !
The package is under GPL Copyright and sources are included.
I've tested it only on PSP with FW 2.5 using Fanjita GTA loader, but it seems to work also on 2.x.
Many HP48 stuff can be found on the following url: http://www.hpcalc.org
As far as i know Helwet Packard graciously began allowing HP48 bios to be downloaded in 2000 (you need it, but it is NOT part of my PSPX48 package because it's not GNU !).
Enjoy,
Zx.
