I messed around a bit porting TMW to Android(Well, really just Linux/ARM with a funny SDL..). My experience was that TMW just chewed way too much CPU, and would kill my battery in literally tens of minutes.

SDL just isn't all that efficient, especially the way TMW uses it. Completely disabling alpha blending helps a bit. I hope your PSP port turns out better - at least it has a bigger battery. Maybe you could get opengl working? I'm sure it's GPU is probably pretty power efficient..

The PSP SDL port is just a layer on the sceGu library that uses the gpu anyway. I have opengl support disabled at the moment because the less variables introduced into the port the better... once I get it fully functional I may work on adding GL.

And what about TMW on symbian? Symbian is open, is in C++ and has SDL ported (I know it, I am going to port one of my applications into symbian).

Works nice under Maemo on the N900.
