I wonder if a variation of that could be used in the iPhone as a legal 
App Store app or apps. Since you're not actually trying to run (?) a 
real program, but only learn the syntax of the language, would it get 
around Apple's licensing issues for the iphone apps? Would be a pretty 
decent "hook" for people to become more aware of Squeak/Smalltalk if it 
flew.
