BBC Micro Emulator
– GP2X BeebEm, with minor changes
– built with gcc, optimized for OMAP3
– with Notaz SDL, for hardware scaling
– a few free disk images are included with the emulator
– button mapping and save states are working now
– remembers path to your disc images
This port is a work in progress, not perfect yet:
– the GP2X BeebEm uses 320×240, some scan lines are lost.
– the sound is a bit choppy sometimes
– virtual keyboard don’t work, not much needed on Pandora
– hard to type some keys in Basic, need a Basic key map / option?

Transmission-qt is a GUI for Transmission loosely based on the GTK+ client. This is the only Transmission client that can act as its own self-contained session (as the GTK+ and Mac clients do), and can also connect to a remote session (as the web client and transmission-remote terminal client do). Ported to Pandora by Canesco.

Microbes by Jon Sneyers is a tower defense / survival RTS game.
You control a reverse-engineered immune system and have to defend against invading microbes. More strategy/tactics involved than in a typical TD game: no fixed microbe paths, the microbes attack and destroy your units, your units have several modes of operation (focus on faster/stronger/weaker microbes, multi-target, etc) and you can aim them to adjust the covered area.
