Iphone 3G get Android 2.2 port

[redact]

Sure, we might be seeing some big changes to the iPhone tomorrow, but what if you could see some big changes on your very own iPhone, today? Well, you can if you're brave enough to try installing Android on your iPhone, which we've seen done before, but not with Android 2.2 (otherwise more deliciously known as Froyo). Still not convinced that such a thing is possible? Then head on past the break for the video evidence, and hit up the link below for the complete, not-for-the-faint-of-heart instructions for performing the feat yourself.

P.S. Of course, "runs" isn't exactly the same as "runs well." The iPhone in the video apparently got noticeably hot after five minutes of use, and there's some issues with Android not recognizing little things like WiFi or the phone's GPU.

once the GPU and WiFi are supported it should be pretty sweet

also, those who didn't read about iDroid... >Linky<

They're an incredibly well known company. The software is very good. The source code is free to use. Google offers very good documentation and support to developers.
Do you really need any more reasons?

Don't get your hopes up guys its just froyo(2.2) I have a droid with froyo and flash is not built into the os its an app for android so if someone can port over the app you guys won't be seeing flash 10
