Last night on January 20th Dan East released the alpha version of PocketQuake, the first successful port of Quake to any pda. ... Currently PocketQuake only runs on the iPaq." And Jacek Fedorynski points to this screenshot as well. Note that this only works for iPaqs running WinCE, not Linux.

    It will never run on my Palm IIIc.

  2. Doom's on Itsy by Bomb+Regardless · · Score: 5

    Itsy (DEC [now Compaq]'s research PDA, has had Doom for a while. (It's B&W, unfortunately.) Even better, though, is that the Itsy can be controlled by rotation (called 'Rock 'n' Scroll'), so you just turn the machine to move, & press the one button for shooting.

    There are some movies that show this, I'll have to find them.
