Palm emulation for iPhone/iPod touch demonstrated
Today, February 23, 2008,
StyleTap produces software for Windows Mobile devices that allows them
to run Palm OS applications.
Now they've apparently produced an experimental build of the
CrossPlatform Palm emulator for the iPhone / iPod touch. StyleTap
makes clear that this is "NOT a product, nor is its presence here a
commitment of any kind, express or implied, that StyleTap Inc. will
ever release an official version of StyleTap CrossPlatform for Apple
iPhone or iPod touch."
In other words -- don't ask for a copy, no it's not in beta, and you
can't have it. Nonetheless, this proof of concept is quite
intriguing.
So the question is: would you like to be able to run Palm apps on your
iPhone or iPod touch?

Nope. No thanks....
Garnet has a virtual machine for the Nokia Linux tablets...(c;

Works pretty cool but Palm software won't take advantage of the full 800
pixel screen of the N8xx tablets, unfortunately.
Sure lots of free software to run on it....(c;
The Hotsync to Palm Desktop on a PC works great. Just plug in a camera USB
cable to the tablet's USB port, do it over Bluetooth OBEX or even over your
Ethernet/wifi LAN, by simply telling Palm Desktop where to look for the
Virtual Palm tablet....

Per 4phun:

Yes. It might make me buy an iPhone instead of some other.
But the emulation would have tb pretty good - response-time-wise
and screen-wise.
My main reason for sticking with Palm is something called
BrainForest - basically a hierarchical list, whose functionality
for me could be replaced by something like MS Word's "Outline"
format.

the better question is why would you want to run a palm app and a gem
like i phone. palm sucks and has nasty buggy software.
