    How To: Run Android on Windows Mobile Handsets

    Ever wanted to run Google's latest and greatest Android OS on your Windows Mobile 6.5 handset? Sure HTC's Sense interface, in conjunction with stunning hardware (HD2 and TouchPro2 alike) makes Microsoft's dated operating system bearable; but just how many fanboys strive to run both operating systems?

    Behold "Gen Y DualBoot", the latest and greatest hack to come out of XDA-Developers, essentially this is a Linux based boot manager, allowing the user to cycle between Android and WinMo 6.5. (In hindsight, it acts in a similar manner to boot-managers featured on Windows and Macintosh PCs)

    PocketNow shares how to steps, as well as a video demo. Whilst essentially this ROM is intended for a HTC Touch Diamond 2, PocketNow clearly shows it functioning on a TouchPro2. 

    Whilst this hack may be intriguing to some, it isn't for the faint at heart. Be warned there is the sheer possibility of accidentally bricking your handset.
