Android is now ported to iPhone, by Planebeing. Android is already been ported to Xpedia X1, Nokia N900 and Windows Mobile handhelds. The hacker says porting to 3GS will take some more work.
Planebeing is the guy, who ported Linux kernel 2.6 to Apple iPhone. There is prebuilt image of Android for iPhone 2G (download from here), it sets iPhone in dual boot. You can choose to run Android or default iPhone (Mac OS).

Taiwan’
s Institute of information industry has made a revolutionary by making HP Mini WinXP Netbook to Android Mini Tablet PC.The slick remix of an HP Mini 1000 runs XP when in netbook configuration, but then switches over to Android on an unspecified ARM processor when the screen is pulled off and used as a tablet.
It is much like a touch book It has the Atom in the netbook base and has been swapped for a VIA C7-M, so it’s not exactly a rocket, and second, the screen is connected by VNC, so video performance isn’t going to be all that great. We’re hoping the additional year of development III says it needs will solve some of those problems.
Apple iPhone
Apple is hiring engineers to work in next generation mobile processors. The current iPhone runs on ARMv6, which is considered to be a little setback to iPhone since its competitors have moved to ARMv7. Apple gave disguised reference when it introduced new softwares for iPhone, that failed to work concurrently with other third party applications.
If Apple switches to ARMv7 for its iPhone, it will give clock speed to 600Mhz from the 400Mhz (from ARMv6). This will help iPhone run multiple applications run in parallel, which is one great feature that all smartphones posses.
Apart from iPhone, Apple may use the new mobile processor for its existing products or may bring in new products (netbook etc.,). I will be one of the Apple enthusiastic, to try the Apple gadget in the product.
