It happened to me that the serial comunication with the Emulator was painfully slow but fast on the real device, and the drawing to screen fast on the POSE and slow in the device.
I try to use POSE only to do a demo of the project and some debugging but do the real work with a Palm device. Rechargable bateries are a blessing. ;) Sebas --- Dave Lippincott <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > While the number of ticks per second is rather > reliable in Pose, the > sub-systems that do things like access memory and > the screen don't seem to > be 'regulated'.
