Gadget News - Android on HP TouchPad Works Like an App



The craziness that is the $99 HP TouchPad has died down and users are wondering whether they could port the tablet with Android. As much as webOS being a critically-acclaimed OS, the fact remains that not a lot can be done there.
There have been several attempts to get Android up and running on the TouchPad, but a recent post in PreCentral (which is dedicated to Palm and webOS devices) shows how to make Android run in the TouchPad like an actual app. Interested TouchPad user candownload and install the test IPK file to the tablet, but do not expect it to be flawless as this method is a test for now. You can also check out how it is done in this YouTube clip.
Several tics are noticeable when switching between homescreens or trying to play back YouTube videos. There are also issues in audio and multi-touch, as well as a power off issue that requires a hard reset
Not wanting to be left out like it did when iPhone and Android become the “it” smartphones, Nokia is said to be contemplating in to partnering up with Monster Cable–whose sub-brand Beats Audio already forged a partnership with HTC–to boost its phones’ audio features.  According to leaked images that appeared earlier today, Nokia and Monster may have a pair of headphones for smartphones on their sleeves. The accessory, dubbed Nokia Purity HD Stereo Headset, features an electric blue pair of portable cans that seem to be wire-free. It is most likely that the Purity HD will connect to media via Bluetooth, but it is also most likely that these press shots are hiding the wires somewhere.  Not much details are available as of this posting, but we are sure to hear (or not) about this at the upcoming Nokia World.  Coming up with a pair of Nokia headset from Monster is a gamble for the Finnish mobile phone company. But Nokia fans, who are used to the company’s range of low- and mid-priced phones, may not embrace an (expectedly) overpriced pair of headphones.  http://celebritycombo.blogspot.com/
