No question ARM is capable of running the iPhone, but OSX already supports x86 and PPC, both of which (particularly PPC) are viable in a phone setting. I've written ARM assembly too and have to ask, why do people like it so much? On 1/11/07, Jamie Riden <jamesr () europe com> wrote:

(I used to write assembly code for ARM2 and 3 and it's a gorgeous instruction set to play with.) cheers, Jamie -- Jamie Riden, CISSP / jamesr () europe com / jamie.riden () gmail com NZ Honeynet project - http://www.nz-honeynet.org/
