HP TouchPad can now run Android OS...sort of

By Gadjo Cardenas Sevilla

What's more awesome than $99 dual-core webOS tablets? Kick ass hackers who put in hours of work to enable Android on the now discontinued HP TouchPad. Team Touchdroid has managed to install Android 2.3 (yes, it is the smartphone version but you have to start somewhere) with multi-touch now enabled. These lads are hard at work to turn the abandoned tablet into something useful and fun to use.

I'd like to see if someone can figure out how to dual-boot Android and webOS on that sucker...oh, wait Team Touchdroid already did!  Hit up Team-Touchdroid to track their progress, encourage their efforts or donate your TouchPads and $$$ for the common good.

Seems like Cyanogenmod deserves credit as well for getting things started
