i imagine it wouldn't be too hard to compile FUSE for ps3.
Fuse - the Free Unix Spectrum Emulator

i love spectrum too.

Would u not think there is too many keyboard inputs in general Spectrum game play to make this practical and work from a PS3 joypad?

most spectrum games had redefine keys option which you could map to joypad...and you always had either kempston or sinclair joysick options for most games.

Ps3 support USB keyboards - so easy as that.

Then PS3 Joypad to emulator a sinclair joystick or kempston.

That's why a lot of emulators have OSK (on-screen keyboard) but obviously it wouldn't be a big problem on PS3 as it supports USB keyboards.
