-As of September 2008, the driver supports smooth/flat shaded triangle rendering
-with Z testing and simple texture mapping.
-Simple demos like gears run successfully.
-To test texture mapping, try progs/demos/texcyl (press right mouse button for
-rendering options).

-Runtime/dynamic code generation is being done for per-fragment
-operations (Z test, blend, etc) and for fragment programs (though only a
-few opcodes are implemented now).
+As of October 2008, the driver runs quite a few OpenGL demos.
+Features that work include:

+<ul>
+<li>Point/line/triangle rendering, glDrawPixels
+<li>2D texture maps with nearest/linear/mipmap filtering
+<li>NPOT textures
+<li>Cube maps, to some extent
+<li>Dynamic SPU code generation for fragment shaders, but not complete
+<li>Dynamic SPU code generation for fragment ops (blend, Z-test, etc), but not complete
+</ul>
<p>
In general, however, the driver is rather slow because all vertex
transformation is being done by an interpreter running on the PPU.
