Project goal
To implement Android (probably CyanogenMod 7) on the TouchPad as a card using a chroot
execution environment. Perhaps eventually putting each Android app as a card.
- This will allow the use of Android apps (hopefully, including market) while not having to leave webOS or reflash the TouchPad.
- However, it will probably not have 3D support, so people whining for "romz" will probably not be fully satisfied. ;)
Required pieces
- The kernel may need to have Android bits compiled in. This could be added to the standard UberKernel without impacting regular operation.
- The Android graphics and devices need to be rerouted to use SDL and other PDK-supported APIs.
