I was being emotive and you shut me down with logic :)

I understand the reason for removing the interpreter, I just think it's overkill in this instance...

Totally agree, overkill in the extreme! I would love a fun little basic on the iPhone (though JavaScript and HTML5 are actually a very good substitute)... But apple doesn't want certain bit of software on their platform... And this gives them the excuse :)

Here's a neat trick that lets us access the BASIC interpreter in the C64 app:

I wonder if there is a way to upload games or D64 images, etc to a Jailbroken  phone to work with the Emulator?

Yanked again:

Apple yanks C64 emulator from App Store • Register Hardware
http://www.reghardware.co.uk/2009/09/08/c64_app_store_no_show/

They apparently left the BASIC interpreter in there, just hidden.
