Just when we think we've seen it all, along comes Quake 3 Arena ported for Windows Mobile, this time touching your chainsaw wielding inner psychopath through direct hardware video acceleration for the Dell Axim X50v/51v series. Other new features since 1.0 include:

Windows Mobile 5 - This version works with Windows Mobile 5, but still requires the same amount of memory as it would under PPC2003. Dell Axim x51v users may be out of luck without some system tweaking and optimization. 64MB simply isn't enough when your operating system only affords you 21MB to play with.
Software Optimization - We have converted the entire codebase over to fixed point arithmetic for faster execution on handhelds.
Memory Auto-tuning - No more configuring your memory panel. This release will autotune its memory use for your device.
