Google Android on Nokia N810

Good example of the actual power of the Open Source solutions, in depth example of how to port Android 1.0 to the Nokia N810 from someone that actually did it - look no further than this writeup over at LinuxDevices.

As you’re probably well aware, the N810 is not a mobile phone. It’s an Internet Tablet, normally running on Linux. It has a built-in slide-out keyboard and a 4.1-inch touch screen so at least at a base physical level it seemed like a great candidate for Android. What Peter McDermott and his NthCode consulting firm did, was to evaluate the differences between a standard Linux install and the Android distribution and bring the N810 into compliance with Android.
