go pick 1024x768 and see how well that works out for you. there are
dialogues that will not fit, although i don't remember specifically

Apple simply needs to compile a version of Rosetta for ARM and which
emulates 64 bit 8086s. This way, you could run Intel OS-X apps on your iPaD.

So you could run the OS-X Rosetta that emulates PPC over Intel, over the
the IpAd Rosetta which emulates Intel on Arm :-) (You could then run
SheepShaver which could emulate MacOs on PPC, and that MacOS has the
built in 68k emulator :-)

Or scan any number of live blogging sites during the announcement, the
unlocked SIM was a widely-noted part of it.

Not quite this. Desktop apps process events. Some are keydown and key
release events, some are mouse movements, so are mouse clicks.

A virtual keyboard can generate those events. And a finger press on the
screen can generate a mouse down event for the widget undert it suchj as
a button).
