Cool. I'm looking to get a 'droid phone some time - part of the criteria will be the minimal requirement to run some emulators.

Part of the problem is there seems little interest and when non-PC emulators of the A8 do appear they don't seem to have local optimizations.
Nintendo DS is a good example - we have an 800 emu but it runs maybe 75% of the real speed, yet there's SNes and Megadrive emulators that perform better.

Changes for version 1.4:
* Android port renamed to Colleen
* Implemented paddle emulation
* Allow file selector to roam outside the directory provided by the OS (allows for weird mount points on some devices)
* Support for saving and loading the emulator state
* Various small bug fixes and improvements
Months ago I contacted the author and he told me he was still developing.

I think that the problem with the DS port (PokeyDS) was that the developer dropped the DS totally in favour of the Dingoo, he didn't just dump the Atari emulator
