Well I am assuming that it will have to be in C though on the Prizm

Well since GBC emulator is possible on the Nspire, shouldn't it be not very hard to do on a Prizm?
Or is it a whole different level?

nspire use arm9 processor, prizm use sh3 processor

there are some pocket pcs (old pdas) that use this processor (sh3)

if is possible port windowsCE to prizm we have emulators, games, office, etc...

It may be possible, but you would have to solder additional RAM chip into your Prizm :-)

From what I heard we cannot port Window$CE to prizm. Don't quote me on that though (pun intended) ;)

Yes it would be rather easy I guess. Due to hardware limitations it would run at 21 FPS but it would be so fast that you could even allow the user to disable speed throttling.

Or it could be written in SH3 ASM.

The problems I see with that would be:

1. Copyright- I'm sure WindowsCE is copyrighted..

2. Size- I don't know how large WindowsCE is, but the Prizm has limited space.

3. Hardware- I don't know how similar or dissimilar the devices running WindowsCE are compared to the Prizm.
