According to MS themselves, No WM6.xx devices meet WP7's requirements. I know that XDA guys and PPCGeeks has done incredible things on WM devices, But if WP7 is built like the iPhones OSX, It prolly cannot be Ported to any other devices but a WP7 devices as well.

Wasn't there a Twitter post about HTC revealing that the HD2 is getting the WP7 upgrade? Not to mention a few hints from microsoft?

The HD2 does have all that is necessary to meet WP7 specifications.

That said the author of this thread is referring to the TP2 by the sound of things.

Microsoft – “I don’t know if any Windows Mobile 6.5 device today meets (the) specifications” to upgrade to Windows Phone 7

like I said, If they lock WP7, It will prolly be difficult.
