Actually they are working on porting to x86 (atom) processors to run under Meego... So as wmarone asked please fix your title ... and your text .... better yet rewrite it....

Because it does involve ARM. They're trying to make something similar to Rosetta that allows ARM apps to run without being recompiled on x86. This has nothing in particular to do with iOS, and likely won't help due to the effort required to port away from it.
This article is simply bad journalism written by someone who holds at best a pale understanding of what they're writing about.

Guys, read the source article. It says they are working on making a tool to help PORT iOS apps, not "emulate".

I don't know wtf exactly Intel is up to leaking that bit of info, but I bet Jobs is having a fit right now over it.

Much better description of what Intel is after. And Qt shares a lot in common (MVC) with Cocoa, so porting will probably not be quite so painful once the OS specific stuff is abstracted out.

This is about a tool for developer to port *their own* iOS apps to Qt, taking as much advantage as possible of the common C++ base underneath. If you get about 50% of the code automatically ported then that is all the work you have already saved. No magic button.
Even if Intel is funding this project in the MeeGo & AppUp context, technically it is not tied to the AppUp or Intel/Atom, but to Qt.
There is actually a company or team developing this in... Brazil? Can't recall the details now. afaik it was just briefly mentioned here and there and at the time no media seemed to pick this up.
Sounds like an interesting project, specially if you set your expectations at realistic developer level.

No ysss, please don't let yourself get carried away by sensationalism. Your comments are usually based on higher standards.
(But I still think SJ is having a fit over something right about now
)
