1.  Your statement that "no one is interested in making Rockboy better" is flat out wrong.  At least one developer has been working on Rockboy, and there have been improvements made to it as recently as last week.

2.  That said, developers work on what they want to work on.  Rockbox is, first and foremost, a firmware for audio players.  Most developers would not categorize Rockboy as one of the "best features in Rockbox" (many would not even categorize it as a useful feature) so they work on other things.  And I for one am very happy about that.

Yea, i mean, what's a music player without a gameboy emulator? ;)

I'm really interested to learn how to develop rockboy code. Developing emulators is something I want to do. The problem is just I ever thought emulator programming was reserved to some elite who really understands reverse-engineering and kicks asses in normal programming. Instead of this, I suck in C :P
