says the blackberry simulator kind of works in wine.
It's freely downloadable from
http://na.blackberry.com/eng/developers ... lators.jsp
in case anyone wants to triage the bugs...

When I try to run the simulator in wine I get:
err:bitmap:DIB_GetBitmapInfo (44): unknown/wrong size for header
err:seh:setup_exception stack overflow 24 bytes in thread 0009 eip 7eddd84f esp 00240fe8 stack 0×241000-0×350000
Wine failed with return code 1

The image of the 8703e does appear but I get a “Division by zero” error and a Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library error of “This application has requested the Runtime to terminate in an unusual way.” I figure we are close. Also, I would need to run MDS. Any ideas how?

I’m running wine-0.9.25 / debian / gnome and BlackBerry device simulator 4.1.0.359.

IT WORKS!!!!

Now I need to figure out how to get MDS working. I'll continue the thread here:

With the kind help from http://www.slashdev.ca the Blackberry Simulator and MDS work under Linux wine 0.9.58 with only some minor inconveniences.

As well as file any bugs that can/should be fixed on wine's end.

I submitted the Blackberry simulator to the database (and a note about the MDS). Thanks for the heads up.

Please give us a link.

(Or does the appdb make that hard until it's approved?)

The web app said it would require approval so I doubt I can provide a link until then.

Here is the link to the application in the Wine db:
