i never even thought of that.. but like the OS now (2.2/2.3) they wont fully utilize the dual core without modifications...

i really see no benefit to run dual boot android/windows on a android phone

now when i had my HTC HD2 i ran dual boot... (windows/android) but still it was to slow

yeah i can understand i got to try out the HD7 when it first came out for a few days... (customer loyalty) and it was very fast... now a quick question have you EVER owned a 1ghz andriod phone?

because if you have you will know that andriod is alot faster than windows... (windows phones does have some cool features)

i found this nokia dual core phone but im sure there will be some to come.. if you like windows vs andriod you'll just have to wait =(

Running Android off the SD card isn't the same as actually running it on a phone designed for it.

I ran Android on my HTC Topaz (Pure) and it sucked hard. I'm sure the HD2 does it better but still doesn't compare.

I know we can run Roms directly off of the SD card because I've done it on a Nook Color with Honeycomb. So I guess it would be possible if we had the drivers.
