CyanogenMod Ports Android To HP TouchPad

[wraggster]

yesakmac joins the teeming hordes of successful Slashdot submitters, with this excerpt from PC World that says the frenziedeffort to port Android (http://hardware.slashdot.org/story/11/08/23/0256202/android-on-hp-touchpad) to HP's discontinued TouchPad has actually succeeded (http://www.pcworld.com/article/241840/cyanogenmod_alpha_comes_to_the_touchpad_lets_you_m inecraft_it_up.html):"CyanogenMod also released a 'lower your expectations edition' release guide to let you know exactly what is working (or not) under the hood. Modders will be happy to know that basically all the TouchPad's guts are recognized. It supports dual-booting and fake SD cards in case you need to restore the TouchPad. What does not work, though, is the camera, which can only be used for video chat. Power efficiency is still an issue, too. As for the final build, CyanogenMod says they won't be giving a hard date, and that it will be ready when it is ready."
