anyone else been trying this?

I really quite like it, you can boot from the CD (HD installable version doesnt exist yet) and have a working browser. Theres no sound or wireless, etc, but its really good for a beta.

As its Linux based and free, it might be more suited for some business requirements (ie: access a database whilst you out in the field) better than iPhone or Blackberry.

Im not a phone fanboy at all, I get bored by people talking about changing their phones to keep up with Joneses, etc, but this is quite a pleasant little OS. :)

im getting the HTC Hero tomorrow which runs on the Android OS - from the test i had of it and all the extra i have read it appears to be a very good phone and contender with both the iphone and blackberry market - i will let you know how i find it after tomorrow

Didn't even know this existed until i found this topic and did a quick google, sounds like a cool idea.

Although the next version of ubuntu will apparently run Android apps natively :)
