Windows Mobile ported to the iPhone (maybe)

 Could this really be true? A Norwegian developer is claiming to have figured out how to run Windows Mobile in emulation (like Boot Camp) on the iPhone. Don't believe him - we don't - but here's the video.

Now, we don't really believe Erik Kristiansen’s claims, even though he promises to release it next January, and if it were to be true we'd still be puzzled why anyone would want to sully their iPhone with a Windows system.

Why did he develop this? "We have long winters [in Norway]… we have to do something," but even in Norway it's not quite winter yet...ah well.

Cheers to Electric Pig for the tip-off.

Fake. Winblows Mobile won't

Fake. Winblows Mobile won't even run correctly on hardware it's meant for. No way it's going to run on the iPhone especially under emulation.

Even if by some stroke of wild ass luck it isn't fake, just because you CAN do something doesn't mean you SHOULD. As useless as this is though, Apple will probably let him put it on the App Store right beside the virtual lighters and tip calculators.

Boots too fast to be real

No way WiMo will boot that fast.
I usually watch the green bootup screen for 30 seconds before it does anything

HAHAHAHAHA, that video was delightful. Sounds like Norway is a geeks paradise! The girls program too? I'm on my way! (Yes, I'm a geek too!)

what a bitch

3427

That reporter was a bitch. "don't you have girlfriends in Norway?" What the hell is that supposed to mean? Oh, I forgot, people who program are awkward and could never get a girlfriend so they spend all their time programming. That was such an 'I'm the witty reporter' comment. In my opinion anyway.

ya she is a total bitch
