Some of my friends have android phones and tablets, for fun I checked 
the google play store, and sure enough, there were a few Forths 
available, most notable gforth. Myself, I am using an ipad, and the 
only local Forth I can use at the moment is (a very nice btw) a Jupiter 
Ace emulator. Now the Ace is quite awesome, even though it's the 
unexpanded version, leaving ~800 bytes or so of user dictionary space.

I know Apples guidelines were very strict in the beginning, but they 
seem to have relaxed if ever so slightly. There are various Lua, Python 
and Ruby interpreters available on the app store nowadays. Has anyone 
in here ever though about implementing a Forth for the ipad/ios-devices?
