android on the diamond would be awesome to play with, but it would take awhile before it would be "better" than windows mobile because of the lack of apps created so far. I know that since it is so much easier to develop android software that there will be a wide range of creative apps, but look at how many windows mobile programs there are already.. android definitely has some catching up to do... and besides, windows mobile 7 is on its way and who knows what goodies that will bring...

I think I will agree on that. It'sstill a young OS. And Sprint even said that Android for now is not good enough yet to be carried by them. But sprint said that they will carry it in time. But not as of yet.

one good thing about Android is that it wake up Microsoft, the giant. Microsoft will pour money and resource into WM at no cost, even giving out alot of free features which used to be third-party app. Or MS even copy Android features and make that feature better on WM. they did this to Netscape

Another good point.
