What is the emulator you're using for windows under OSX? Parallels, Vmware, Wine, or ...? Which version of Windows XP or Vista?
When I get time I can try under WinXP in Parallels 3 on my 10.5 MacBook Pro. Should have time later this week...
-------------------------------
Or am I misunderstanding you. Are you running under OSX native virtualbox? I could try this on my MacBook Pro. Do you have setup instructions? Or did you just mount the Palm "CD" ISO file?
If this is your setup, then the .bat files won't work... So not too useful of setup at this time...
I actually figured out that the Command/ Keys are the Host keys when using the Mac OS X version of Virtual Box. The Mouse section works the same for me. & most of the Keyboard sections works just fine on my Mac.
I'm using VirtualBox & got the instructions from this post. Pretty straightforward. Had everything up & running within about 10 minutes tops (Includes time it took to download everything).

Here is a short howto:
1. obtain the SDK
2. download and install VirtualBox including the kernel modules
3. download and install Wine
4. run the Windows installer in Wine
5. after the installation is completed, note the image and grub boot ISO location (default: ~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/Palm/SDK/share/emulator/images/sdk47/nova-cust-image-sdk47.vmdk and ~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/Palm/SDK/share/emulator/images/sdk47/grub.iso)
6. start VirtualBox
7. create a new Debian machine; specify the .vmdk file as a source image and grub.iso as a CD-ROM boot file (and note the machine name)
8. run the following command to enable HVGA framebuffer resolution in VirtualBox: VBoxManage setextradata "YourMachineName" "CustomVideoMode1" "320x480x32" (set YourMachineName according to your machine name)
9. your new Palm Pre is ready
After start, the machine should produce kernel command output and then show a glowing Palm logo and finally the Luna environment.
