Iphone OS to Winmo?
 

So there are some incredibly smart ppl working to get android over to our vogues, and doing a great job of it. not that i'm a huge fan of the iphone os, but it would be pretty neat if it'd be possible to port the iphone OS to winmo, and i'm wondering if anyone has any info on it being attempted, and why/why not?

this is not an winmo vs. iphone thread, so let's not start.

I've asked about this a couple times and got a its not possible answer. Personally with everything ive seen done with these phones i dont beleive anything is impossible.

Mostly the problem stems from Apple hardware not being recognized or coded with Windows Mobile native

Unlike PC's where now that Apple is using Intel chips as the CPU, Microsoft can communicate with the CPU and it can process instructions and there is even a USB device to load the MacOS on a PC as well - but with Mobile devices this ALL changes as even the WinMo devices are not using Intel or AMD or even Motorola CPU's in them so the OS has to be developed in how to communicate and run the processes asked of the CPU and supporting hardware

Impossible, not by a long shot
Difficult, most definatly as well as costly and then there are legal issues with ownership and pantents and etc etc etc.

and to be honest an emulator would prolly be up and functional long before a native OS moved from a WM Device to portable MacOS (IPhone/Itouch) or vice versa would occur although Linux (Anddroid) is a definate first step
