Very interesting news, I just hope it's going to be easily available and installable for the noobs like me (I'm pretty sure there are a few of us). The youtube vid deffo seems to show the N900 running Maemo5 - be nice to get some of those sexy Android apps - I'm pretty hopeful for 2011 now!

I didn't see this posted in this thread so I figured I'd do it:
http://www.engadget.com/2011/02/08/m...hone-starting/
With the youtube video showing it running on the N900:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mXWEy...layer_embedded

The android apps do seem to be integrated, they use the launcher to start them up etc.

I think google likes this development. They're in it for the ads.. and if the android apps run like they are supposed to, they'll have those admob ads which means google profits.

edit: I just saw the first post had been edited to add the youtube link. sorry.

To add a little more content to my post I thought I'd add a video showing the myriad dalvik software running 3D stuff faster than googles dalvik implementation:

I guess that means 3D android apps work on maemo+meego+symbian devices

These people are presenting at Mobile World Congress(in a couple days), Its not just a random youtube video out there. With that said, skepticism is good.

This will be running on Maemo, clearly visible on the video, its also going to be a paid app, but you should be able to use the android market from what I have heard.

Due to fragmentation id imagine this app will only work with 2.2 for the moment.

I agree that this is more of a problem for Nokia than a win. Android secretly eats symbian/meego from inside.
The guy has got a point...

ad is not Google's sole revenue.

That video is of Dalvik Turbo vs (Google's) Dalvik 1.5/1.6. There's a huge speed up on the current version (2.1+), if I'm not mistaken.
