There is an open-source implementation of Cocoa called GNUstep; it should be possible to use this to represent iOS cocoa in theory.

iOS is using Cocoa Touch, which itself is only based on Cocoa.

Cocoa Touch is made up of at least UIKit and FoundationKit

And then you'd have other things an app may need to run.

tl;dr this is going to take a while.

If this is real, then I'm sure this will also run on our devices!

Edit: Crackberry website also confirms that it's real....

Kinda excited if the N9/N950 or even our beloved N900 will ever have this...

Updated first post about running iOS apps on the Blackberry playbook and Windows.
Amazing job!
If they can do it, I'm sure WE can do it as well!

...without any more options coming from almost upside-bellied Nokia, Playbook OS / BB10 + maybe such an iOS layer may be (the?) one of our half-assed "options". :(

Got a reply back from businesscat2000:

Sorry for the late reply - I just (didn't) and don't really know what to say. I wish I could release the code - I'm familiar with N900, and it would run perfectly. It only has dependencies on pthreads, ogl 1.1/oal, libc and the ability to mmap the low address range 0x1000->~0x300000.
