We told you earlier this week about reports of an iOS emulator running iOS apps on the BlackBerry PlayBook and the video proof that accompanied it. Kevin over @CrackBerry was rightfully skeptical of the developer, businesscat2000, and asked for some more evidence. Well now Kevin has the evidence and he is also convinced that it is real. The developer has even explained how he managed to get it to work and answered many of the more technical questions about the implementation. Businesscat2000 has even made the challenge asking any dev to send him an iOS app (within certain specs) and he will run it in the emulator. Check out the video at the end of this article to see the app Kevin sent him to test.
The one question I am dying to know the answer too is one that businesscat2000 has yet to answer. What are his goals with this emulator? I really hope he releases it to the public since there are quite a few interesting things that could come out of it beyond simply running iOS apps. Here is to hoping RIM hires Businesscat2000 to work on BlackBerry 10.
and one more
