From what I understand, running Froyo on the HD2 is not 100% stable yet.

Get N1 for piece of mind. Dual booting isn't stable and consume more battery. Correct me if i'm wrong smile.gif

If you really wanted Froyo, get an Android phone would be better. Porting it to a WinMo phone is not exactly stable. smile.gif

Might be cool to run HD2 with FroYo. I would go for it if I have cash to spare. However, when Gingerbread comes out, what then? Get another phone? Buy back N1?

With N1, you know you'll get a taste of Gingerbread before anyone else. brows.gif

Keep the HD2 for Windows Mobile and keep the nexus or upgrade the nexus later to higher end Android. This is exactly what I am doing. The HD2 will be the last of the WM 6.5 product from htc.

The Android OS on HD2 is not yet fully functional yet - it might take a few more weeks for the XDa chaps to have a working version. IT'd nice I'd say you install Android just to show the HD2 can dual boot. So far no mention of programs installation compatibility yet ; one thing sure is any issues will have no support all from the apps developer

The next HTC Ace/Desire HD will most likely have Evo-type hardware. It is rumored just around the corner. When it is launched, you may regret why take all the trouble to mod a HD2 to Android.

You don't need Nexus One liao. Gingerbread going to standardize the UI. Would HTC owners abandon Sense? I don't feel like giving up Sense.

I'd think that the HD2 can be upgraded to Win phone 7 ( depends on whether those XDA guys wants to work on it ). Officially no. If Win Phone 7 on HD2 , it just means only 3 buttons are functional. I was at the Win Phone 7 sneak peek event in Singapore last month - I was told it definately can be done but HTC will be launching separate models for it.
