Right now, there&rsquo;s no way to go about it while your Pre-toting friends can fire up <a href=\"http:\/\/admin.precentral.net\/app-gallery\/app-catalog\/classic\">Classic<\/a> and get the action going. Never fear, for MotionApps hears your pain and is in the process of cooking up a version of Classic that will work on the Pixi and even make use of the device&rsquo;s smaller screen.<\/p>\n<p>Currently, Classic on the Pre shows up with a classic Palm OS D-pad and device buttons meant to emulate the physical controls on the older PDAs and Treo smartphones. These controls are dropped below the 320&#215;320 Palm OS screen, using the remaining 160 pixels on the Pre&rsquo;s screen. The Pixi, however, has a shorter display and only 80 extra pixels below the Palm OS screen, which means that any controls would have to be squished. Or they could be done webOS-style for maximum space utilization, as <a href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/album.php?aid=173936&amp;id=150114819433\">MotionApps posted on their Facebook page.<\/a> It&rsquo;s a pretty darned slick solution to what could have been a nasty problem.<\/p>\n<p>[via: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.palminfocenter.com\/news\/10031\/classic-palmos-emulator-coming-to-palm-pixi\/\">Palm Infocenter<\/a>]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Got a Palm Pixi but still need to run some old school Palm OS apps?
