Discussion about
Android maybe?
So who else on here would like to see Android on this. It is rumored to possibly be running Android, which would be awesome.
Yeah i did like the new shots of the UI, but as with the Hero i am all about vanilla so if they make so you can switch at least, i will be happy or make due.
Plus i would like to knowif it can be rooted like the phones, since i would love to have Cyanogens on it.
No kidding, he is already media oriented in some aspects but add that to creative or any other PMP and it would be bliss. Not to mention if the speed of his Roms were increased by a faster processor, it would be almost to fast to use.
No actually the Creative device is supposed to have the fastest smallest processor with the ability to use the whole processor for whatever is needed. So the Zii chip might actually be faster then the Tegra/Snapdragons, and cheaper.
I agree you combine those you could get PMPs and Phones for practically nothing that are fast. All you will really need to pay for is the memory.
I am with you, by next year at least i know i will have 2 android phones, the Zii, and at least one of the tablets, and possibly a dualbooted netbook with Android.
They have the live CD of android you can boot from any computer, so its not far off to think that I maight be able to install the OS and run it off wifi. Would be interesting.
The Live CD is a little tetchy atm I think, as its still in beta (or alpha i dont know for sure). I will be keeping my eye on this project though. In the mean time Google are working on Google Chrome OS, I think it will be a slight battle to the release date between these two OS's, although I think the open-source project will have more enhancements plus have the added benifit of a mobile stack!
I really want another mp3 jukebox and would like to wait out for something like the iRiver K2 with at least 16Gb. I would like my gdgt collection to be mostly Android. :-)

I think the two OS are targeting different models. With Android you get a desktop based OS with apps and what not, with Chrome OS you are a browser based OS with wep apps and whatever Google can through into the browser. Honestly the second the Chrome OS beta comes out i am going to be installing it on one of my Laptops.
