You know, I've asked about this already in the CSBWin forums (Paul Stevens has already converted it to Palmtop) and I got no reply :( , hopefully this post'll be more successful...

Well, I took a peek at the hardware and software of the Nokia 6600.
It looks like it has the same processor as the PocketPC and it supports
a C++ compiler. So it should be possible.

I did not see any 'pointing' device like a mouse or stylus-sensitive screen.
DM and CSB would be possible without these (it works on the SNES) but
it is awkward and the interface would have to be modified. I don't think
I am up to that. Moreover, the PocketPC experience taught me that it
is quite difficult to write programs for a machine one does not possess.
I spent several hundred dollars for a PocketPC and hesitate to spend more
for another platform.

Now, if someone else wants to try this then I will assist in every way possible.
We succeeded with the Linux port and the macintosh port.

I just got a p800, would love to play DM on it, that would be cool.

Maybe DM Java would be easier to convert to J2ME.

Equus / ZPC: What other games have you got for the SE Px00 model? There is one called legacy kicking around

I would love to see Reshift (http://www.redshift.hu) release their mobile Civilization for the mobile market, imagine that on teh train home :)

Hi everyone by the way, im still lurking here :)
