You're welcome!
If someone is interested to help developing/beta-testing Etoys on the iPad, I will sign the app so it runs on their (non-jailbroken) iPad.
Also, if someone just wants to know how it feels to use Squeak on a touch screen, please download my touch emulator image. Should work on all platforms:
http://etoys.squeak.org/experimental/etoys-touch-100620.zip
I'd be interested in feedback if this works on Windows and Linux, too - you should get a huge hand instead of a mouse pointer (and tap the About flap to try some preferences).
> Bert, how could i change the image provided in the ipa file ?
If you are just interested in accessing the Smalltalk tools, tap the About flap and disable the "etoys-friendly" preference. Then you get the regular world menu when tapping the background, and you can jump to the top-level project which has some tools open already (this is an Etoys-4.1alpha developer image).
To use a different image, it would be best to compile your own application:
http://isqueak.org/
And the ipa is just a zip file. Replacing the image in the zip might work.
