Re: Windows Mobile 7 for the Diamond? and Windows mobile 6.7 any news
The Pre uses a 600 Mhz TI OMAP 3430 CPU while the Diamond uses Qualcom 7501A CPU. I haven't seen the instruction sets yet but I'm pretty sure they are not the same meaning you cannot directly port the OS over. That does not mean you can't get some form of emulator - which would slow it down - or more likely someone will invent a skin or UI that mimiks WebOS.

I saw a Mac run windows once. It had a daughter board for the differences in the instruction set but if that can happen, anything can.
