Well think about it. App store will have so much cool stuff that'd never be on or wouldn't be as fun on WinMo. Lets take Super Monkey Ball for example. On the iPhone, you will be able to tilt the iphone ever which way, and have full control.

Exactly, WinMo would only taint the iPhones perfection. There are so many more advantages of the iPhone over WinMo.
I jut think it would be interesting if someone could do it, not that I would actually do it if it became publicly available.

i know teh iphone has 1000 + advantages over WinMo... Thats for sure im not arguing that... but just because iphone has 1000 (for example) over WinMo doesnt mean that WinMo doesnt have 100 of so... think it would be a cool idea that would be helpful

Although the possibility probably isnt there and including the fast fact that I love Apple more.... But you cant deny that most people and companys are using windows machines. I impose that instead of creating a dual boot OS we make most office program documents campatible and editable on iPhone/iPod Touch... lol I would like the ability for on the go editing... Like iPhone Excel!!

(I can dream, cant I?)

thats possible... the one issue is staring at that 2 inch screen and typing with that key board to edit the documents... it would be kinda anoying... but it would be part of the dual boot WinMo

Ok, we get it, iPhone is better, blah, blah, blah.

That's really not even entirely true. Either way having both would be a great thing.

I dont feel it would be stupid for those of us who could really use document editing on the go (simple text imput, nothing fancy)... Microsoft already creates an Office suit for Mac, thats prob. because no one has completely paralelled the success of Excel, Word, etc;

Emulating windows mobile would be hard on the cpu. Why would we even do this? It might be possible to run on the arm9 as I've read somewhere that Windows CE 6 can run on arm9, but what is the point? Any apps that Windows mobile has, we can make applications to replace. The only advantage Windows Mobile has is flash support.

Yeah we understand that, we're just saying. I agree, it would be the fact that we could get it to work on the iPhone that would be a great feat. Means many more possible and amazing things to come.

But I think the first step is to get Linux working first. I hope development is still underway with that.

Dev's have been attempting to get it to work on the iPhone since the Bootloader was cracked. I believe it is possible to get the os on there, it's not highly performance dependent... There is a forum here on it and everything, check it out.
