I do have a Tungste|E ROM, but I can't distribute it legally (afaik).
I doubt PalmOne has the rom for this model downloadable anywhere
because T|E (likely as the only Palm model) has physically unwritable
Flash, the appropriate pins are just not wired to the CPU.

The nearest hardware-wise model is called Zire 71 but I'm sure some
modifications would be needed in the emulator to run a Zire 71 ROM.
Most other models are completely different inside even if they look
similarly outside. The T|T5, as well as T|E2 are XScale based.

For emulation of some of the XScale-based palms see the qemu tree at
http://git.hackndev.com/gitweb?p=qemu.git;a=summary
It has stubs of T|C, TX, Lifedrive, Treo 650, Treo 680 and Zire 72
emulation (but none of them boots into PalmOS fully at the moment of
writing).
