...Handheld computer capable of running Dark Basic? I am getting a Desktop PC soon so that will be powerful to do all the good stuff, but I want something Portable to take my projects with me and to show my friends and so I can keep organised! I don't want a laptop because their far to big (Yep even the 12" screens!) I want something thats similar to this

But not that particular one. I saw two user opinions of it and they both said it has major performance issues!

If this is impossible then does anyone know how I can get DBpro on my Pocket PC?

[EDIT] Do I need virus protection for my Pocket PC when its on the internet? And if so is there a good free one I can get? [EDIT]

Sounds a bit pointless man. I'm not a big fan of pocket PCs, although they do have their uses. I'd recommend finding something with good video playback. Then you can FRAP some videos of your projects for playback on your handheld, and store the files on it too for transfer to a mates PC if you want to actually run it. Just my suggestion. I think you'd be hard pushed to find a pocket device thats based on DirectX9 and has good 3D capabilities on par with your desktop.

Well would it be possible to convert a program that I have found into a format so it would work on my Pocket PC?

Well it looks like it has windows... I would assume you could take the folder from 'program files' and then just transfer it on there. Don't bknow if thats against the rules or anything but I really don't know if it would handle it. It's worth a try though, right?
