So who's excited about Android then, and why?
Second question, should MoDaCo spin off an android community? P -------------------- If you'd like to support MoDaCo, please consider signing up for a MoDaCo Ad Free or a MoDaCo Plus account - now accepting Google Checkout!

Yes and Yes. Like I mentioned before, it should be a good addition to the MH website.

Will I be able to install Android on one of my Vario II's? I am assuming someone will make sure that I can? If so I would definitely like to see a Android forum. Might even put it in my C550 if possible.

If i'm honest I'm a tad sceptical about the potential success of android at the moment, though i'm fully prepared to stand surprised
I do think a spin-off of modaco for android would be great, and I think would be a great help in making android a success story -------------------- Aston University 2008/9 - Marketing - WOO :D

Yes ... have an android arm. Either within Modaco ... so have:
Windows Mobile Professional (PDA Touchscreen phones Phones) Windows Mobile Standard (Smartphones) Android Perhaps could then integrate other Mobile OS's too at a later stage. OR ... have it totally apart from modaco, but linked in like EEEASY! I dont know what to expect from Android ... BUT if Chrome is anything to go by, then theyre going to have one fantastic phone OS. -------------------- --

I think it would be good if we have a small team to create a MoDaCo branded Android.
