one sprint isn't moving away from winmo to android. it is acquiring another os. now it has palm, winmo, blackberry, and android. Android is not built for the business consumer android is built for everyday popular use which is why you are required to have an everything data plan, which means 69.99, 89.99, or 99.99. people with sero will not be able to receive that phone. 2nd sprint doesn't invest too much into making the phone, htc makes the phone, winmo makes the sys, and sprint just adds oems, they do not actually develop the phone, which is why sprint, att, tmobile, and verizon all have the phone. What are you saying sprint is going to stop selling winmo and everyone else will? the tp2 will not be used as a test device, you must have missed these post.

So you would need all new drivers to be written over, you would need all Bootloader to be redone.

Will it run with the specs, sure it will run, but unless HTC makes a last decision move to support it, (<1% chance) you will not see it, unless someone rewrites the drivers and bootloader and everything all over again to match CE OS 7.

It is not impossable, but its very very unlikely it will happen, I have decided to hold off on buying a new device this year,

WM 6.5 End of Life is in February at that time MS is going to only build WM7 builds, and work on that, at that time, D2 and TP2 will not be recieving new SYS upgrades.

WM7 has reached Milestone 6 last I heard, it requires hardware acceleration, because the home screen involves a lot of transparent images, and so without the hardware acceleration, it wont display right.
