What kind of machine still needs fixed point arithmetic?

PS2 and other consoles of similar age or older, pretty much anything handheld (ARM CPUs and the like), and probably some other devices...


Also J2ME virtual machines, like on mobile phones, using CLDC 1.0. CLDC 1.1 is supposed to support floating point arithmetic, but I'm leary of the implementations.
