This'll put the final nail on GamePhone's coffin (they built the rest of the coffin themselves).

New in version 1.3:

Improved speed
Full sound support (Registered version only)
Full definable keys
Run games direct from Memory Card
Save rom files opened from Inbox or ZipMan
Send rom files to your friends (Registered version only)
Run games directly from .Zip files
GoBoy currently does not support the following:

2-player Link support
This will be added in a future release of GoBoy

"Improved speed" my ass. Maybe it's just me, but i tested it while ago and noticed that it's more slower/sluggish than version 1.2.

Full sound support (Registered version only)

Does the free version have sound?I'm only asking because i still haven't tried it.

You can play about one minute with sounds.

I think you are wrong.
the speed is noticeable to my 7650

Like jojo, I think its noticeably slower on my 3650. Perhaps it was built optimized for the 7650?

jojo, what phone are you on?

How is the speed. Can you really play gameboy games properly? or we have to wait for another speed improvement?

What Goboy needs is a super speed upgrade, so maybe it would be possible to finally play GB/C games fullspeed. Which is like... hillarious, since there are 100+ Mhz S60 phones out there, and those are more than capable of fullspeed GB emulation.

As all you guys talk about GoBoy and speed. I'm using a 7610 and it is to fast for me to play. Does anybody know how to slow it down?
Thank you very much.
