Survey, you are willing to pay for a version of emu48 on android-os?

Are the bugs you are most concerned about from that the author chose x48 as the engine instead of emu48 or bugs from the Android-specific code the author wrote to get the x48 engine running on Android? I am just curious.

Before anyone writes a new emu48 app for Android, does anyone know what engine Olivier De Smet's apps use? I don't know if his 4 apps use emu48, x48, or something else. His are the go48* series of apps.

Here are all the HP-48 related Android apps I know about. Notice how many installs have been done for the free apps versus the paid apps.

• Droid48 - free - 1,000,000 to 5,000,000 installs
  Emulates 48GX and 48S based on x48 engine, file import-only, no printer, the first emulator on Android for HP-48 series
• Droid48sx - free - 100,000 to 500,000 installs
  Emulates 48SX based on x48 engine, file import-only, no printer
• go48g - free - 50,000 to 100,000 installs
  Emulate 48G with unknown engine, no file import/export, no printer
• go48s - free - 10,000 to 50,000 installs
  Emulate 48S with unknown engine, no file import/export, no printer
• go48gx - $12 - 100 to 500 installs
  Emulate 48GX with unknown engine, has file import/export and printer emulation
• go48sx - $12 - 50 to 100 installs
  Emulate 48SX with unknown engine, has file import/export and printer emulation
• Droid48 Reader - free - 10,000 to 50,000 installs
  My app. No engine since it isn't an emulator, provides file export from Droid48 and sort-of for Droid48sx
