Many phones powered by Google’s Android mobile operating system have yet to get updated to the latest version. One of the most infamous cases of this is the line up of Samsung Galaxy S devices which has yet to see an Android Froyo 2.2 update despite Gingerbread 2.3 already being on the market.
If you have an iPhone 3G and are looking to put your Galaxy S touting friends to shame, you’ll be glad to know that Android 2.3 has been ported to Apple’s smartphone. Utilizing the OpeniBoot software, this Android 2.3 port looks to be generally well functioning despite some notable lag. While this probably won’t be the most practical port, it serves as a proof of concept that reiterates the fact that the open source platform can infact run on Apple’s hardware.
Check out the above video and let us know what you think. Would you rather your iPhone run Android or are you happy with iOS?
