Sweet. I didn't take the time to watch the video, but from the looks of that still, it seems they've removed the parser, which is a shame. Still, glad these classics are making their way to new devices. :)

So is the Ipad just a big tablet with a screen? I've never actually seen one.

It's like a netbook only it runs a heck of a lot smoother and has no keyboard (well, that's not true. One pops up when you need to type something). So yeah, a tablet PC. They're pretty nifty.

So it's not actually an app just a shortcut link to an iPad friendly sarien.net site, still pretty impressive. Should also work for iPhones aswell. I wonder how it compares to ScummVM for iPhone/iPad running AGI games.
