In need of windows ce emulator for linux

In summary, a Windows CE emulator is a software program that allows users to run Windows CE applications on non-Windows devices. It is necessary for Linux users who need to run Windows CE applications and is especially useful for developers. While there are free options available, they may not provide the same level of performance and compatibility as paid emulators. Not all devices are compatible with Windows CE emulators, and there may be limitations such as compatibility issues and slower performance.

Hi everyone,
I'd need a windows ce emulator for linux, seems like I can't find any. There's one on microsoft's site but it's only for windows.
Did anyone try to run vmware/windows/pocket pc emulator? How is the performance?

I've used VMWare and it fit my needs perfectly, although I have never used any other software, so I can'y really compare it to anything else.
