Looks like your flying friends may have company when it comes time to, um...kill time, as Markus Persson has confirmed to Gamasutra that an iOS port is "in the works."

Aron Neiminen, a new recruit to the Mojang team, is responsible for the port, and if all goes well, it'll be let loose later in the year. Persson also confirmed that the iOS version won't receive every update that the original browser / download versions get, but that it'll be "granted features that make sense for the touchscreen platform." Raise your hand below if you're giddy beyond control.
