Android ported to the iPhone, Steve Jobs loses his sleep

Here’s the next proof, if needed, that the rapid development of the Android OS has impressed the whole mobile world. A knowledgeable user managed to port the Open Handset Alliance platform to run over the Apple hardware that is inside the iPhone. Baaam!

There’s not much else to say here but for the fact that you can find pre-built images and sources here. The video below (shot on another iPhone to prove the developer’s commitment to the Apple cause) will do the rest of the talking.

I’m not quite sure if many iPhone owners are willing to join the Android bandwagon at this stage but in case the Google OS gains some serious advantage in the future it’s nice to know that it’s an option.
