In what sense is it better than the upstream DOSBox?
From the website of AnDOSBox:

GPL FAQ

1. Where is the source code?
Source code will be available starting from 26th April, 2011. Any user obtained a copy of AnDOSBox from us can email us with proper subject title and a trackable evidence of being our AnDOSBox user (e.g. an Android Market purchase code) and we will provide the source code, usually on the next working day.

2. Why charge a fee when most work is done by DOSBox Team and they provided it free of charge?
We only charged on our part of involvement, otherwise, the whole project worth far more than that price. Per our selling price, we get more incentive to continue, users glad to access their favour software for a little price, other existing ports get minimal impact, and that doesn't against the license.

Well... I tried many other DOSBox ports, I just have to be honest that AnDOSBox is really so far the best of them all for the Android.
It's the smoothest and it works great with the N900 Keyboard
Unfortunately, the keyboard of the N900 doesn't work very well with the other ports of DOSBox...
