Nokia N900 gets unofficial Android 2.3 port


The Nokia N900 is the company's current flagship which runs Maemo Linux. With a 3.5 inch display, 5 megapixel camera and 32 GB of internal storage it is almost unlimited in it's potential, with it's lack of app support from mainstream developers being it's only downfall.

The folks at NitDroid have managed to bridge this gap by bringing an unofficial version of Android 2.3 Gingerbread to the device, thus giving the N900 users a taste of all the Android goodies.

The person responsible for this hack, Alexey Roslyakov has confirmed via twitter that a more stable hack will be available before the end of the year. The current build does not bring full Android functionality but cellular data, sound and WiFi seam to work okay. The picture below, which was posted on twitter shows gingerbread running on the N900.
