A vintage Pocket Computers and Calculators emulator
PockEmul 2.10.0 has just been released.
Unfortunately, for iOS users (iPhone and iPad), the app is still awaiting approval from Apple since several days.
I’m truly sorry for this delay, which is completely beyond my control.
If you own a Mac, you can already install PockEmul 2.10.0 for macOS. It can be activated even if you are still using PockEmul 2.9.2 on your mobile device.
After several posts introducing the main new models in PockEmul 2.10.0, this post takes a closer look at the new features included in this release.
It has now been more than ten years since I started working on the simulation of the Sharp PC‑1211. This machine was the very first pocket computer programmable in BASIC, and it is truly frustrating not to have it available in PockEmul (just like the Casio FX‑702P, by the way).
So, while waiting for access to its ROM—something I still hope will happen—simulation remains the only viable path forward.
The HP‑41CX had gone far too long without any updates in PockEmul. I believe the next area of development will focus on the HP‑IL module.
