Have you ever thought or expected of Android 2.2 working on Nokia N900? If not heard then make your ears used to it. Google Android 2.2 known as Froyo is working just fine on Nokia N900. Hackers have managed to install and run Android Froyo on Nokia N900. Before we have seen Android working on Apple’s iPhone 3G.  If Android can work on Apple’s handset then Android’s Froyo working on N900 comes as no big surprise. They seem to get along very well as if they are old buddies, offering some blazing fast Web browsing performance as well as decent hardware support. It’s not the final build, so some features are not working properly. Cell signal, mounting the SD card, and obtaining an IP address automatically over WiFi don’t quite work now but it will soon be running properly. The video of Android 2.2 Froyo working smartly on Nokia N900 explains it all.

24 Oct 09 N900 release pushed to November, Nokia acting on feedback

The Maemo 5 powered Nokia N900 has created quite a buzz, however the launch of the same has been pushed back from October to November for Nokia to act on user feedback received during the pilot testing it did. Some 300 pre production units were given for test purposes and the findings have given Nokia some work before they rollout the device to the masses.

Last I heard about the device was on the first Engadget show where the resistive touchscreen was criticized. Hope Nokia delivers something good in November.
