2.3 all the way!
E-yes is a champ!
2.2 is still on most handsets as compared to 1.6 and 2.3 is still in its beginning..
e-yes was right to take the decision to move to 2.2 rather to stick on 1.6 but thats not the case with 2.3 as N900 hardware (late 2009) is not strong enough to handle an OS of late 2010..

That comment was not about e-yes. It was directed at 'community' voices of "stay at 1.6 and get full support".
It was in reply to this:
Also, as for 2.3 needing 1ghz - Not true. You may be looking at the old rumors of 'gingerbread' release. It being only for high end devices and such (1ghz/512mb ram). This was all rumor based (actually on droid 3.0). 2.3 runs fine on average (600mhz'ish) devices.

Will be awsome if 2.2 functions fully in beast...

n900 gets problem on overclocking and secondly every owner of N900 doesnt live in canada or ireland,,, many live in hot countries.;.
, I guess I'm one of the lucky ones with a processor chip that can take it.2. I don't live in Canada or Ireland, I live in Malaysia down near the equator, where its hot and humid all year round,

Mate,
Not cool.
They haven't got a fully functional OS on anything other than Maemo.
Why not help develop it yourself? Many of us here have helped develop Android to where it is now. I helped with Marketplace and a few other tid bits, plus testing and cracking away.
If you decide you want to help rather than just WANT something, come to http://forum.nitdroid.com/index.php
Edit:
Not even Meego is fully function - Nokia made that!

lets stop complaining and be happy with that what e-yes gives us.
maybe it will work maybe not but the point is that the nitdroid team is working hard to make our day a little bit better and we should be thankful for that
