I know this will sound stupid, but is there a way to install WM (.cabs) on an android phone? (or port a program somehow)

Basically, nope!

Probably, same phone, same hardware, but the difference is, different operating system.

The only way to port stuff over, as yet, is to get hold of the source code and re-engineer it into the other OS. Not for the faint hearted, although it can be done.

The question to ask is, 'Is your App worth that amount of effort?'

'Where is the source code?', for starters.

If the App was written in .NET then a MONO CF for Android could be a solution. Anyone written it yet?
