Also does anyone know where I can get ROMs?
Should I be using the POSE (Palm OS Emulator) or a simulator for this
device? I have heard the term simulator used, but I don't know what the
difference is. I have run the POSE, and it runs my application ok, but
doesn't display my high resolution 320 x 320 graphics. I tried downloading
the latest ROMs from the PalmOS site but it doesn't appear to have ROMs for
Tungsten devices.
Any ideas?
thanks,

The emulator emulates a 68000-based device. You plug in a ROM, and it
takes on the personality of that device, just like a real device would.
The simulator is, in effect, a port of Palm OS to Windows. This port
has everything that the regular Palm OS has, including a 68000 instruction
set emulator that lets you run 68000 programs on it.
The emulator is only available for devices that actually have a 68000
compatible processor in them. The Tungsten T2, T3, etc. don't have a
68000 processor in them (they have an ARM processor), so there is no
emulator for them.

You need to go to the PalmOne -- *not* the PalmSource -- site to get
the Tungsten simulators. PalmOne are the ones that make the Tungsten
devices, so they are the ones that released the simulator.
