StyleTap officially bringing Palm emulator to the iPhone / iPod touch

by Mat Lu May 31st 2008 at 5:00PM

Way back in February we posted on an experimental Palm emulator for the iPhone & iPod touch from StyleTap. At the time, they insisted that they were making no commitment whatsoever to release it as a product. Well, apparently they've gotten over their cold feet as StyleTap has announced their intention to bring StyleTap CrossPlatform to the iPhone and iPod touch. It will be available in "early July 2008" and more details will be released at that time.

I wonder if they delayed a bit too long. Obviously, they were waiting for iPhone 2.0, but with native software coming at the same time I wonder how much Palm software people will want. That said, there is a huge catalog of Palm software out there and having come from a Treo I can think of several applications (especially finance related) that I would love to have on my iPhone. What do you think; is there any Palm software out there you really want running on your iPhone?

I'd like to see eReader and MobiReader to Mac touch. I know that eReader is working on an iPod version but that could be a long time coming. It would be fun to have some of the programming language things like iziBasic, cbasPad5,LispMe, etc. available too.

The only Palm app I miss is Vexed, my all-time favorite game.

man I'd love to have a cross between RememberTheMilk and DiddleBug. Capture on the iPhone, send to web and get MMS reminders at whatever time you set (easy defaults, like Backpack).

- Handyshopper. I have so many lists set up in there, including all the wines in my wine cellar.
- eWallet, though 1Password may do the trick when I get round to syncing it
- Bible+ or a Bible.app which will read the same format so I don't have to go buy The Message and NIV again.

Planetarium would be awesome, but the one I would use most is MetrO.
