got a question

[elesbb]

How hard would it be to make an emulator that would allow one to have windows mobile running , then launch an app that would allow one to then run android programs .

Nearly impossible, and not worth the effort. Much better to run native code, and just forget WinMo .

i would do that if the native code worked flawlessy and smoothly and quickly as does my windows mobile

yes that statement is true . i love my custom ROM and everything about it .

But i have a second question,

How hard would it be to forget winmo completely and have android run from the phone itself and not from the SD card . in my mind, wouldnt that make it MUCH faster ?

How would it make it MUCH faster?

SD cards are pretty quick, so where are we getting this amazing speed gain from...?

Android works pretty smoothly, but it does have its problems - obviously - we're not nearly done with the project!

If you want to flash, there's ways to do it - but it's even more buggy and less functional than haret versions that boot off of the SD card - hence the reason there's only 2 threads on the topic. Need more time to iron out bugs before this is ready for prime time!

Well in my mind , its like having windows 7 on an external HDD , connected to a usb port will run slower then having it connected internally to a sata port .

LOL i know this . not trying to start an argument . just wasnt sure if this would be possible . plus once it it in its final stage , will it be like picking up a evo or epic and having it run smoothly ? im not saying your taking to long lol .. im just wondering if its POSSIBLE .

Well that's not the difference here. The SD card isn't like a USB connection - it's just as fast as the NAND, if not faster (depending on the card) in fact... So you won't get any speed boost whatsoever from NAND. Sorry, apples & oranges is what you're comparing.

Of course it won't be like picking up an Evo or an Epic - look at the hardware specs! Just because the Android port is complete doesn't mean it's going to run like those phones...

If you're going to compare to native Android hardware, at least be fair - compare it to the G1, or the Hero. Look at processor, RAM and screen res specs - when we're "done", it should run comparable to those devices. Evo and Epic are not really fair comparisons, as their hardware is soooo much newer/faster/better!

It's more likely that android will be finished one day than it is for ppcgeeks to put a moron button right next to the thanks button. Personally, I'm in love with both ideas. Juzt bee payshunt and reed, n u can haz ur androy'd.

USB mass storage doesn't work.

Please use search...

With Droid Explorer you can kinda get USB mass storage, but it's really for debugging.

Kinda funny how you threadjacked your own thread tho. Good stuff.
