Dual boot Android / Windows

So you want an Andows, or is that a Windoid device. Well those ingenious fellows over at XDA Dev have been working their magic again and have released a bootlauncher to do just that.

Its still early days and limited to certain devices and screen formats (VGA only at the moment) but does support both "Internal Storage" and "Storage Card" devices.

Obviously only for serious die hards as this will cause you warranty to completely disappear in the case of problems.

Intriguing the bigger problem is to me that the chefs have not got Android fully working on that many devices yet!

Quality work though. I'd love to have both on an easily switch between the two.

If they get there I'll be dead chuffed too, they do not seem to be making much progress though.
