Introduction

I have created this page as a work in progress for people like me who only have the emulator to develop on.

Below is a list of differences between the Pre and the SDK emulator.


Differences


Applications

Messaging does not work on the SDK emulator. (Install http://forums.precentral.net/homebrew-apps/205914-messaging-plugins-live-yahoo-icq.html to make this work)


File System

File system is read only on the Palm Pre. File system is read/write on the SDK emulator.


Architecture

Palm Pre architecture is armv7. SDK Emulator architecture is i686.
