I dunno , would be neat but I like running it the way it is now. Best of both worlds. I mean how many of your buddies can say that about their phone can run TWO different systems?

Honestly, I was gonna buy me another phone with Android because I was getting tired of the TP2, was just getting bored with it. Not anymore.

is performance supposed to be better using a stripped ROM? like does it run files off main memory instead of storage?

That is still a WM ROM.

Not sure about that but it would ok. I mean why would you want a phone that can run both OS over just an Android OS?? I personally would rather have a bad@$$ Winmo ROM.....maybe like MR.X 2.5.....running the Android at my choosing. But that is just me. To each is his/her own.

Im in total agreeance with this. We seem to have plenty of memory in Android to do what we want to do, and I feel a lot happier knowing I have the ability to run either or.

But when the time comes that it is feasible I suppose it would be nice to have that option.

I've already reached my "props quota" on Mr. X tonight, so I won't go there.

I'd probably flash Android if I could get the same type of performance and battery life out of it as I do with Winmo. Until I do, I'd rather dual boot.

Hell - make that a triple boot now that we've can run Ubuntu! :headbang:

We have so much more fun than Iphoners, don't we?

We definatly have way more fun than iPhone users. I have a few hold ups with doing a complete switch to Android.

1. Free Exchange Calandar/Task sync.
2. HTC Wifi Sharing
3. Some Special WinMo Only Programs for Work :(

For me the dual boot is wonderful. It is like a work phone from 9-5, and then a personal play phone for the rest of the time :)

Android is amazing even at the point it is at right now. If it could only charge, Have better battery life, GPS, and sound..... I would only switch back to WinMo to check my calendar and accept meeting invitations.

I'm right there with you, except that I use the gmail calendar and so it gets sync'd to android along with my contacts :)
