Various <a href="http://gizmodo.com/5062569/windows-mobile-running-on-an-iphone" target="_blank">blogs</a> are reporting today on a video of what looks like Windows Mobile running on an iPhone. In the demonstration, which took place at the seemingly fictitious <a href="http://myphone2008.com/" target="_blank">myPhone 2008 conference</a>, Norwegian application developer Erik Kristiansen showed off his accomplishment of running Windows Mobile on an iPhone. However, the quick demonstration, awkward interaction between the two, and unholy pairing of Windows Mobile with an iPhone made us skeptical. After we checked out other videos from the "myPhone 2008 conference", we're calling this one a fake.

Well that wasn't an awkward interview. Hmm, just like installing win xp on an imac, who would rape their iphone with mobile windows.

I mean. I installed Windows XP on my iMac because it CAN do that and it is advertised by Apple. This shows that Apple Computers can have the best of both. But seriously? WINDOWS EFFING MOBILE? That platform sux and it's like ewwww. Like he said ^ "why rape your iphone?" Yeah. And this was damn fake cuz they had a little love connection and the dude seemed kinda stoned. :p

It appears to be a video being played on the iPhone that he has timed out to act like he is touching the screen and Home Button. Loser.
