Both of them are based on the first game. I for one would LOVE to see an updated version like the one that PPC devices have. So MUCH better than ours! Anyone know if there's any development to bring this game to the small screen? Game software on the Palm side definitely needs to catch up!

This has not been updated for a looong time and it looking pretty old. It is lo-res and doesn't do a lot more than older versions of SimCity. The freeware version is very limted and the amount of development has been very sparse. The idea of SimCity (and any similar games) may not work out as well on a Palm OS not because of the concept of the game, rather, what you use the PDA for ... and often, SimCity is not one of them! __________________ The answer is 42! If you know the answer and the question at the same time, the universe will then be swallowed up and be replaced by something even more inexplicable!

Did you try the high res version of the game?

Yes I did. It crashed my NR70u. Oh well... I'll wait for the update.

Me neither. I'm a mozilla user. This site keeps forgetting my info from time to time.
