If it's going to be BSD based like OSX and has plenty of horsepower ... man.

The lack of any tactile input (a.k.a.buttons) makes this thing unattractive for me

The iphone for gaming not very good idea the phone doesn't have any buttons and no stylus pen, that's bit silly every pda phone has stylus, as for gaming the gp2x knocks this out the way at least gp2x has a touch screen and stylus, i don't believe one thing what is apple thinking of no buttons and stylus must be one of the most awful product of all time.

Way to revive a super old thread, just so you can throw in your typical two cents that everyone has already said too :/

Although in retrospect it's pretty clear that iPhone hasn't become a strong emulation platform at all, with only an NES emulator and zodttd's two ports (PS1 and GBA). Unlike PSP, no one's bothered to port emus for many of the commodity systems, possibly because it takes more work to get an input system going, and somehow performance on iPhone is a lot worse than it should be.

I think OSX is based on mach unix from the next and most all uni borrow heavily from BSD. Linux firewall for example.
