This is a major feat and all, and I think it's absolutely wonderful, but this is what Android was designed to do--be portable across devices. It just so happens that Android is new and the main focus was getting it to run on the G1 (or whatever the devices real name was). But porting it to run on another linux compatible device? I'm sure this isn't news at Google HQ.
On the other hand, the brief sentence at the bottom, and the news from the weekend? that Android is running on the iPhone--that's news. Very interesting news.
- davidw 18y agoThe actual description of the various things they did is interesting reading: http://linuxdevices.com/articles/AT2892720865.html http://linuxdevices.com/articles/AT2892720865.html Yeah, it's supposed to be portable, but it's often not so easy to deal with a different device/CPU/storage/drivers and so on.
