    Nothing new over here. I was able to boot Android 2.1 on the n900, but that was only after playing around with the omap framebuffer driver that doesn't support page flipping. I don't think anyone wants to see android only take up half the n900 screen :-)

    Ok, so here it where it stands now. Android 2.1 boots on the N900, keyboard works, still no connectivity yet.

    I've gotten the wl12xx wifi driver to load, but the wpa_supplicant has problems scanning for access points and its a kernel issue thats not supported. I even tried using the wlan 1251 driver from TI, but it fails when loading. And the drivers from http://linuxwireless.org fail to load also.

    Bluetooth using rfkill doesn't seem to be supported either even if I enable it in the kernel.

    Still kickin though! If anything I would at least like to get wifi working.

    Thanks for the update!

    Have you got the touch screen all sorted out now also?
    Would love a list of what's functional and what isn't. =)

    Such as:
    - Phone
    - SMS
    - Music player
    - Camera
    - Video Calls
    etc etc...

    Okay. Charging/Battery is very important.
    Then full phone functionality (call/sms) is next.
    Then sound for music playback.
    These alone would be good enough for me. =)

    If you can get them working, would love a alpha-release to the public.

    wowsers! bdogg you are making awesome progress. Are you trying to be a 1 man wrecking crew when it comes to getting this running or are up for help? (not from me The reason I ask is that it seems like you are making a lot of progress yourself but might move even faster with multiple eyes on what you are doing.

    Unrelated Rambling:
    I never really understood how so many people got involved with making the Mer alternative when an open source, portable OS (Android) has been out there, waiting for someone smarter than I to port it to my beloved sidekick in the N810 (unless there is a huge, impassible obstacle).
