Will it?  I'm not sure how floating point works on Palm (you can
consider that a question...), but if it works via trapped F-line
instructions on 68k Palms, then the 68k CPU emulator used on ARM
Palms can probably emulate those instructions directly, in just
the same way it emulates integer instructions.

So, when running on an OS 5 device under PACE, there is the potential
that floating point would be just as fast as integer.


Even if the ARM hasn't a floating point unit? Means the emulation afford is much higher for float operations than for integer.
