    There are not a lot of gaming options for the internet tablet right now, but there are easy solutions to get that gaming fix!

    1. PALM OS emulation via garnet virtual machine (capable of full screen stretch and other display options) all games run at full speed.

    BEJEWELED 2


    ZUMA


    CLICK DELUXE


    2. SCUMMvm - lucasarts game: The Dig



    3. GBA emulation


    4. downloaded games from maemo.org



    5. having fun rotating the screen (can't seem to make a screenshot in portrait orientation)


    hope this helps out all my fellow newcomers!

    For portrait shots, use mh-shot-tool, from http://www.maemo-hackers.org/

    EightyOne and Xword work great.

    Battlegweled is sa Bejeweled clone that seems to work pretty well.

    @Wes: Gweled is working even better, 'cause its not using 100% CPU

    haven't tried battlegweled yet but i read somewhere that it lacks the sound effects, which takes away some of the fun.. the palm version works great even with sound! oh well i'll give it a try later and update my post!

    also, i tried flash games with the browser but sadly i am limited to point and click games only, any game which requires a keyboard is virtually unplayable on the n800.

    @benson, thanks for the tip!

    Are there any good games or emulators not found on Maemo.org?

    Also, where'd that screen rotation setting come from? Is it the long, complicated one to install?
