I want to at least get a feel for how fail wp7 is, before I fully switch to android

ok im a TOTAL 1D10T when it comes to this stuff... does this mean that I'll be able to competely redo my phone with Android OS from WM?

[g2tl]

kinda, but my guess is it'll take long enough for you to consider another phone until something that's usable daily appears

update (not on android but wp7)
TIME TO DONATE!

da_g needs every penny he can get for wp7 and he thinks he can crack it if he has jtag trace 32 and a touch hd2
I'll ask the mods if I can make a donation thread for wp7 progress

as for android
read the quoted

linux test
linux finally runs and that means android isn't really all that far behind...matter of days, weeks, or even months
its not a video
it plays a video on the hd2 in 720p from the linux console meaning that the device can accept linux commands which means android booting isn't far behind
even more amazing is the ability to run 720p which I really couldn't in windows mobile...so as far as development goes, the breakthrough has been found. I expect a very fast android build to be released!

I am thinking the more important project here is wp7 on an arm7 device which seems reasonable now that da_g has made quite a few strides in a few days...but donations are necessary

So any user with an hd2 donate
edit
mods can I open a new thread soliciting donation for hd2 on wp7 project and link to the xda thread?
