          why would you really want android on n900? you ppl don't want to understand that android is a phone os, and that maemo is a tablet os => that means that with few ui tweaks and drivers you can use it as a full grown desktop OS, and that is a huuuuge difference comparing to android, symbian, iOS, badaOS etc.

          is there anyone that is not a mindless troll on this site anymore?

                Why would enyone want to put andriod on a maemo device? Maemo is more advaced and it is made for a diferent type of users. If you wanted android then you should of bought an android phone. Its totaly ilogical.
