It had to happen... iDROID. The anticipation for the next Apple design is palatable. Its going to be an interesting few days. And iPhone sort-of running Android, well IMHO is worthy news in my opinion. What Apple may not see that is that it is an invasion into its hardware. Its a hack that may not directly lead to anything, but it signals a change in the future of how litterally bilions of units will operate. The difference between an "open" design versus a closed one. I am quite excite then in the ability to embed Android into really any standard smart-phone and now media pads aka iPad?
Yep, the iPhone runs Android 2.2, too
Sure, we might be seeing some big changes to the iPhone tomorrow, but what if you could see some big changes on your very own iPhone, today? Well, you can if you're brave enough to try installing Android on your iPhone, which we've seen done before, but not with Android 2.2 (otherwise more deliciously known as Froyo). Still not convinced that such a thing is possible? Then head on past the break for the video evidence, and hit up the link below for the complete, not-for-the-faint-of-heart instructions for performing the feat yourself.
P.S. Of course, "runs" isn't exactly the same as "runs well." The iPhone in the video apparently got noticeably hot after five minutes of use, and there's some issues with Android not recognizing little things like WiFi or the phone's GPU.
