The iPhone Is Going StyleTap Dancing
Posted by: weiganla on May 31 2008
StyleTap, the Palm OS emulator, has finally released an official announcement that they are planning to add an iPhone version to their lineup. This will allow applications made for Palm to run on the iPhone and iPod Touch.
A couple of months ago the company posted videos showing a "concept" version of StyleTap for iPhone. Apparently there were some kinks with Apple, and StyleTap wanted to gauge interest so they could work out a deal. After racking up over 800,000 alternately drooling and irritated viewers ("Why even put this up for view if you have no intention of making an emulator? Just to piss people off?"), looks like they got one. They’re promising more info in July.
What a relief. I was holding out on the iPhone, but now that I’ll be able to run HandyShopper on it, sign me up! Seriously, I’ve got a Palm and I don’t know any applications that would keep me tied to the platform. If there really are programs that good out there, I feel like I’m missing out!

What is the format,...
Yeah, I find it hard to be super excited about this one. Palm apps would feel weird on the iPhone, I think. Especially since a TON of them are black-and-white old school ones with stylus-based interfaces.
But more software for the iPhone sounds kinda neat, so I might give it a shot.
