Ipod Apps
 
Is there any way to make a converter or manually recode a ipod touch app to work on OS 2008?

Realistically no. What's the app in question, perhaps someone can suggest an alternative?

If by "manually recode" you mean "fundamentally rewrite", yes.

There was some discussion in an earlier thread about developing an application which would work in both (with a recompile); but that would have to be specifically designed to do such.

Well then, time to learn advanced coding :(

Has anyone ever converted an ipod app to work on an internet tablet before?

Hmmm...It might be more accurate to think of it as "writing a new app for the tablet that does roughly the same thing as one for the iPod." You might be able to use some of the code for the iPod version as a reference, but that's probably about it. Out of curiosity, which app is it that you're interested in?
