We are still presumably months away from the launch of what?s hyped to be 2009?s hottest handset, the Palm Pre.* The timeframe hasn?t stopped a few, however, from beginning the port of Google?s... Read more

I think I would enjoy that as well but.. We'll have to see how android shapes up over the next few months.

Right now I like apples OS for its overall sexyness and 3rd party support, and I like blackberry for it's productivity.. Android is kind of sitting in a gray area of being on a half assed device, dismal (but young and growing) support and every bit of productivity software seems to need a work around... I'd rather be booting all 3, or just apple and black right now...

Well, it would be interesting to see Android on the Pre, if everyone loves Palm hardware so much.

I don't know why anyone would want to do this. According to all the videos and reviews, WebOS is the going to be the best OS upon its release. I have seen some amazing stuff with it. I don't know why people would bother transplanting Android into all these devices. I guess they just want to show that they can. Lame...

In case you haven't noticed... each new platform has been said to be "the best." And why not? Platforms are designed to sell.

On the other hand... Android is a solid platform that can actually be made to surpass WebOS in the time it takes for WebOS to get off the ground.

If they managed dual boot, I'd be a new sprint customer again.
