Question Android Anyone

Hi all, I just got a new HTC HD2 from T-Mobile US and wanted to know if someone can point me in the right direction on how to install Android. I'm pretty familiar with Android since my first Smartphone was the HTC Dream/G1 (which I miss already) and the only reason I got this phone besides the specs was that I heard you can hack it to run Android. I have no clue about Windows Mobile phones since this is my first one (and I don't like it already LOL) but if I can get Android on here then maybe she's a keeper...any help will do, thanks in advance.

I'm bout to start another life,
look behind you-
I'm bout to pass you twice.

I had to take off the blaza-
loosen up the tie,
step inside the booth-
Superman's alive!

Sell your HD2 if you don't like WM. It'll be a while before Android is on it. Android is possible on the HD, if you want to get that phone.

WOW! So Android hasn't been ported to the HD2 yet? Looks like I'm taking my phone back to T-Mobile and sticking with my trusty Dream until the next best thing comes out.

may i advise you to at least try out wm first though. its actually not that bad, and i think that sense makes it look much nicer than android

You're going to miss the speed of the hd2. I had an HTC Dream too.

You have 2 weeks to try it before you have to return it if you don't like it.
