Newton OS Running On The iPhone Using Einstein Emulator
Matthias Melcher has successfully ported Einstein, an open source emulator to run Newton OS (that used to run on Apple Newton PDAs) on the iPhone. If you had used and loved the Newton PDAs produced by Apple from 1993-1997 then you will definitely feel nostalgic when you see the video...

AWESOME! iWANT this! I nearly bought myself the last Apple Newton MessagePad in the shop in the mid 1990's, but didn't manage (owing to lack of money). Been wondering about it ever since...

Awesome that people want to run a 15 year old Apple OS instead of the rancid spew that Jobs puts out now.

4.1 jailbreak please !!!!!!!! Ios 4.0.2 and 4.0.1 to bugy dont want to downgrade

The community has said many times not to upgrade to 4.1. The jailbreak will be out soon enough, please be patient. Remember these guys are doing a lot of work on their own initiative.
Just a few more weeks if not days now im sure.
Back on topic; the potential of iPhone and iPad are huge. I can't wait to see what Apple has in store for us one even two years from now. Imagine what those incredibly powerful machines will be able to accomplish.

"Melcher plans to submit the Einstein emulator to the App Store but it needs to be seen if Apple will approve it."
1. The source article makes no such claim.
2. The App Store disallows all emulators.
