Yeah, it would have to be distributed as an apk file that you load manually and that is distributed via an underground network. I once ported VirtualT to a Blackberry Pearl device, but it was insanely slow. Instead of spending time to port VT to an iPad, I need to just write a progam so I

Apple is pretty strict when it comes to emulators. Applications can't run code that comes from other sources, bypassing the app store. It would be possible to port it and release it as source-code that you would need to compile and side-load on your own though. You can get a free developer
