Palm emulated on the iPhone: finally we can leave that IIIc at home

by Paul Miller, posted Feb 23rd 2008 at 7:36PM

StyleTap, the folks behind the CrossPlatform Palm emulator for Windows Mobile have built a proof of concept version of the software for the iPhone / iPod touch. They're not committing to releasing any such product, and aren't releasing the software as a beta or anything like that at the moment, but the video demo of the software in action is certainly promising. All the apps are rather responsive, the device benchmarks a good bit faster than the Tungsten | T, and Apple's keyboard is even integrated into the proceedings quite nicely. Video is after the break.

Although HotSync isn't supported, wow Palm OS runs better, faster, same rez, and NOW on Apple's BSD platform years before Palm can come up with a working Linux platform.

Death bells for Palm, Inc if the whole community can just move over to mobile OSX and skip the PalmInc middleman.
