Caprice32 emulator port for the Pandora

Hdonk just released a “very alpha” version of his port of the Caprice32 CPC emulator to the new OpenSource handheld Pandora. It runs at 100% with 750 MHz with sound. Currently you need an external keyboard, because otherwise you can’t use non-alpha characters on the keyboard.
You can get this emulator from a thread in the GP32x forums.

More video optimisation
QT UI for controlling the emulator
