There's a Russian company that's been reporting a product release in a few months for a year or more now. It doesn't surprise me that they've found the job tougher than anticipated but they might eventually surface with a product. The only contact I have is [EMAIL PROTECTED] Until then anyone that wants to increase the chance of an automated testing tool happening could send me some example code for accessing the emulator via RPC __in C__. It doesn't have to be extensive or even functional - just a quick start that doesn't require me to spend a day reading protocol docs would be good.
