FWIW: I've been running PocketScumm and hence can play all games that run under ScummVM on PocketPCs for years. My PocketScumm Manual has now been read by over 70,000 users:

There is a little utility called "No Update" that allows you to get by this restriction. GTA:LC is really the first game so far that actually REQUIRES an update, all the others previously have been easily fooled. I've played Virtua Tennis, Medievil Ressurection etc etc using the "No Update" utility. GTA:LC isn't going to work though but its not my style of portable game anyway; however give people time, they'll find a workaround
