All The Power Of An Apple //e In The Palm Of Your Hand
From the article at The Mac Observer:
"Sometimes you just need a fix of retro gaming, but it's not always convenient to cart a vintage Apple //e around with you wherever you go. However, a PalmOS-based device is much easier to cram into the pocket of your favorite jeans. What good does a PalmOS device do you, you ask? Well, that's where the open-source PalmApple Apple //e emulator for the PalmOS comes in. The emulator, linked to from a PalmInfoCenter article, currently emulates the 65C02 CPU, 64K of RAM, 40x24 text mode, and more. That's right, this software turns your PalmOS device into a tiny Apple //e."

The Replica 1
From the site:
"The replica 1 is a fully functional clone of the Apple 1¿ computer created by Steve Wozniak in 1976. A new circuit layout was done to implement a more simple circuit and replace older no longer used IC's. This new design allows for a smaller board yet still gives all the functionality of the original design. Simply add your own PC 386-Pentium¿ class power supply, a composite TV or monitor and a PS/2 keyboard or Apple II¿ style ASCII keyboard and you are set to go."
