Uberjack (http://0xff.akop.org/2009/05/12/vice-psp-status/) has posted some WIP news of his port of Vice the Commodore Systems emulator for the PSP:
VICE PSP is largely complete; I say “largely,” because the main thing holding it back at the moment is intermittent sound lag.
What is definitely going to be in the release:
The usual features present in my other computer emulator ports: virtual keyboard, state autoloading, per-game configurable input, peripheral indicators, state saving/loading
Support for tape images, disk images, cartridges. Each can be “inserted”, “ejected”, and auto-run (by which I mean that a specific program on tape/disk can be automatically run) separately
Several other things that are a side-effect of being a port of VICE, so to speak
The sound lag issue presents itself when emulator begins to skip frames - sound works perfectly (as far as VICE is concerned, anyway) otherwise. It would be fairly safe to say that once this is fixed, a release is imminent.
