I think there will still be a problem with NPS - since the Palm's idea of
seconds is a much longer time than a real second when one is trying to overclock
it beyond its limit.

According to the Afterburner documentation and Christophe, the actual clock rate
of your palm if you try and overclock it beyond what it can handle fluctuates,
and is often less than it's default clock rate!  I got this impression from my
experiments too.  When I thought my Palm Vx was running at 54Mhz, the charge in
the battery seemed to be going down slower than when I ran the Palm at it's
default 20Mhz.  Now that I'm overclocking to my Palm's limit (28MHz), the
battery seems to be goign down faster than at the default clock rate (20MHz),
which is what I expected when overclocking.
