Android on Touch HD

Leave a comment

tuxhero from xda-developers had defied all odds and skepticism, and release the first alpha version of Android for HTC Touch HD, which we all know is a Windows Mobile phone. The release allows one to load Android into Touch HD from Windows Mobile environment, as you can see in the video below. As with any alpha release, this is not meant for production usage (i.e. day to day use), but it certainly marks an important milestone for HD users who are looking to juice up their gadgets with Google Android OS.

Whoever says that competition is good is really just tweaking the words to his world of advantage. This is a competition but definitely not in the interest of consumers. When it comes to competing for exclusivity, how can exclusivity be good for consumers? Exclusivity = Monopoly. It’s worst when exclusivity is obtained via money instead of through its product innovation. Utter crap !
