been quite a debate, technically speaking it's possible, but you have to wait till a lot of developers manage to crack its bootloader and install own custom rom on it...

Before nokia N8 is officially launch, there's china "nokia" N8 phone with android OS. so eventually i have the thoughts like install android in wave. and like you said, as the originally phone wasn't android, it needs to crack its bootloader and install rom on it. i wonder how long does it takes sad.gif

You should buy a phone for what it can do, not what it might do.

better buy samsung galaxy if you want android.

If android is successfully ported to wave, I 'll do it and make a review on it.

agree. but still, i love wave appearance as the way it is. but unfortunately it was bada, not android. sad.gif by the way, how far can a bada os do? or what's different between bada and adroid? (aside of customizing) any clue?

most users will go for samsung galaxy s 19000 rather than wave due to the os ..
