Newest Pocket Nestor, you don't need to use the nav pad!

Not sure how many of you are up on the latest Pocket Nestor, but I loaded the latest ROM update on my Axim. I figured I'd check for the latest Pocket Nestor and found that there was a new version. If you go to options, full screen, this will run the ROM in full screen with a virtual controller on the bottom of the screen. It actually works! You can use your fingers on the bottom of the screen. It has 3 buttons as opposed to 2 though. A, B, and an AB button since the Axim can't recognize 2 spots simultaneously on the touch screen. It's pretty slick and now any complaints about a mushy nav pad are no big deal. I tried it and it works pretty well.

Hrmm...don't have time right now, but I'll give it a try later this weekend. But I've never had much luck with virtual gamepads before.....hopefully this one will exceed my VERY LOW expectations!

I only gave it a quick test with Tetris and it seemed to work pretty good.
