C64 Emulator Approved by Apple and Now Available. Without BASIC, and will not run arbitrary disk images, only those supplied by the makers of the emulator. Whether this is good news or not depends on if and why you're interested in a "C64 emulator" for the iPhone. At least the initial rejection and subsequent neutered approved version are consistent with known Apple policies: an iPhone app is not allowed to run arbitrary code not vetted by at least the app vendor if not Apple itself, even if that code runs in a sandboxed interpreter (within an iPhone app that is already running in a sandboxed environment). Excusing Safari and a half dozen other examples, of course.
