This appeal to programmers: Why don't you write DOSbox on that buaty platform like Symbian (for me better on Symbian 7)?! Just think about it: On strong powerful PC DOS-emulator not so necessary, but on phone/smartphone/pocketPC with Symbian it very need. Now that device have enough processor, memory, display (with it not so good, but, for example, my phone have 176x208 resolution - i think it enough for DOS applications. For games we can "stretch" display [178x208 - it almost ratio like 3 to 4]) for DOS OS. But how are you think?

P.S. Sorry for my English, i'm not american/british.

Why don't you port it yourself? It's an open source project. Granted the system will almost surely not have the power to do it, no clue if it's god an SDL port, and that resolution isn't high enough for mostdos games by far, and is also by far the wrong aspect ratio.
