I just got my ux50 for christmas, and I am pretty satisfied with it.

I have some questions, though. I downloaded 3 games (I actually downloaded more but these 3 don't work), Grand Theft Auto Demo, 3d Master Theif Demo, and Magic World. It seems than whenever I run either one of these games that I get a white background, the bar on the side switches to the games pallet, and I get 3 overlapping windows accross the top of my screen, each showing the same image of the game. Can I fix this?

Another question is that I discovered that games that are "Gamepad Aware" work with the arrow keys, how hard would it be to get some more of the keyboard keys to act like a game pad or hardware buttons.

Finally, I saw a program sitting around online that allows you to switch the hardware keys around to "customize" the controls of a game. Has anyone here seen it or tried it on a ux50?

Thanks, I know that this isn't meant for gaming, and many of you hate the hardware keys, but those three games look awsome, and I really would like to get them to work.

Yeah, Warfare Inc. works on mine also. I heard that there was a problem with storing it on the mem stick.

I miss snails now, any good worms clones for Palm?

The only one I've found is Rifle Slugs (Apparently its acctually number 2, but it doesnt seem to say this). Its good fun but doesnt have any of the girders or digging from worms (as far as i've found anyway).

I've not registered yet although i intend to.

Cool.
Any idea's on the programs not working though. Is it an OS5 thing, or would it be a problem that is Clie specific, UX specific. I really want to try GTA, it looks neat even though it never was finished.

I believe this has something to do with the landscape mode with Master Theif, it happend to me also. But if you installed warfare correctly it should work with landscape.
