How to Run iPhone Software on Windows Mobile 6.1
So you've decided not to purchase an iPhone (and accompanying AT&T service plan). Your Windows Mobile-based phone gets the job done and you're very familiar with how everything works and where everything is. Still, wouldn't it be nice to have the sleek look and feel that's helped make iPhones so popular? Now you can.
Using a visual emulator allows you to get the look and feel of an iPhone on a Windows Mobile 6-based phone. The emulator, which allows your native mobile Operating System to mimic that of an iPhone, also gives you the "slide to unlock" feature to unlock your touch screen with a snap.

Tips & Warnings
You can customize the visual emulator's icons to activate any program on your Windows Mobile-based device by editing the file "config.ini".
Modifying the "config.ini" file in your visual emulator can disable your iPhone icons if not done correctly. Attempt this only if you have a firm understanding of Windows Mobile file paths.
