Everyone has their own preferences...not to mention WebOS 2.0 has been getting some nice reviews.

should be in general

IMO... webos trumps android in every way. it's just the hardware "pre & pixi" that sucks. id love to see a port of this.

no because i want the devs to see it. if we get some big names behind this im sure it could happen. even devs at precentral are onboard. webos 2.0 + the evo = WIN!
edit:too late i guess!

really? no interest at all?

If the hardware were better I would probably still be rocking webos but android is pretty good, too. Best multitasking I've seen was webos.

I would love if this happened!! I love playing with my wifes palm pre!

would love to see this on the evo

i cannot believe it but it looks like they got it booting now... can we get some evo devs to help out and port this sucker over here? ill donate heavy for this!
they said they should have a youtube video up sometime soon. i hope palm doesn't try anything now that they got it working.

seriously... no ones interested? can i get a mod to move this to the dev section please.

I for one think that webos 2.0 is kinda nice. I prefer my android but webos is cool in its own right.

I would like a dual booting option.

Hello. Pardon my ignorant question but do we have Palm Pre working on our device yet?

1. I'm pretty sure the OP has been know to troll under different names.
2. Seriously? There are people who think WebOS is superior to Android? That's like saying Commodore 64 is better than an i3 on Windows 7.

Tend to ignore? In all of the 1 month and 22 posts that you have been here? That is a long history of ignoring people...
Perhaps I am mistaken, but I know that there is a guy who creates new profiles and creates crazy troll posts until he gets banned. You seemed to fit that profile. I guess we will see if you last. But the reality is, that if you want to last, you are going to have to tollerate the many many ignorant people here... because the MODs really don't do much about the real problems.

After using a Palm Pre for 2 years, and now my Epic for almost a year, there are still some things about webOS that I think are superior to Android. But it's just my opinion. I think there's room for others. =)
Since webOS is going open source, I dream of a day when all I love about webOS will be integrated into Android, and somehow Android will get some protection from all of the old Palm i.p. so that Apple will stop suing everyone. But it's just a dream.

The evo 4g was actually able to port webOS (although it was not really functional) and now that webOS is open source, it's definitely possible. Will it happen though? 99% no.

You're probably right. As much as it would be interesting to port an open source webOS to other phones, the amount of work it would take, and the lack of commercial viability would make it a most unlikely proposition. Then again, there are some formidable developers in the webOS world that may do it anyway, just for the challenge if nothing else.
I think the more likely thing is that Android will absorb some of the good things about webOS, or, at least, some of those features will become options somewhere, either in the OS or in apps. In the past, I once thought that it may be reasonable to try make webOS into an Android skin or launcher. But, without the underlying structure of Luna and the API, it wouldn't really give you any of the real benefits of webOS.
Oh well. I love my epic, and CM9 is fun to play with. I have all the apps I missed on webOS. I'm happy.

WebOS is amazing software, by far the best multi-tasking os for phones. I had a pre myself, loved the software the hardware was just horrid.
One thing I really miss is webOS's Pandora. You could scroll back to previously played songs and like/dislike them and/or bookmark them. Sadly you cannot on android

I meant in general. On the web and other forums. But its seems to me you are the one who its trolling by accusing others and instigating. Is there a reason for it? Do you have a vendetta against someone? Did you get hurt recently? Now I'm beginning to wonder if you are the general troll on this forum. Maybe someone can shed more light, is this guy a troll? Let me know since I might be wasting my time even responding to such a imbacil. Not to be harsh but I don't take kindly to idiots accusing others of false things and dragging it to arguments. Thank you if you guys warn me about this guy. Enjoy life, enjoy your day guy.

That's how I feel myself. Its very smooth and fluid. Similar how the ios runs. I think it would be pretty nice to have a port of it. But most devs have their hands full and most likely won't touch this. I'm aware of the open source nature of it, that's why I am wondering if its easier to port it.

True. But its a pretty cool rom with some nice features. played around with it on my gilrs phone. but yeah a port is a great idea. if i knew anything on how to do it i would.

That should be cool. Since TW and LG TW are very similar. But two difference devices

i think its possible. im trying to do it myself but it may take a while since im new to porting. so if any devs see this i would greatly appreciate any help. any help from anyone really.

Very much agree. Competition brings out the best. But smug Mac/iPhone users give the brand a bad name. But they do have good marketing. It would have to be to get people to overspend so much on something that is clumsy.
I like the idea of Linux as a competitor because it isn't associated with smug ass-hats, and is open-source.
As for Windows 8, I like to think of it as today's "New Coke". Almost nobody likes it, and Microsoft crammed it down our throats because they thought it's what we wanted.
But that's my very off-topic rant. Y'all have a good day!

Here's the thing. I love my Mac, but I can't stand iPhone. I also have a Windows computer, and love it too. Not all Mac users are smug, in fact I went from Windows to Mac very willingly and loved it. However, I'm also very open-minded when it comes to OS.
Also, I didn't know people didn't know you could use adb etc on Mac. Lol otherwise I would've said something a long time ago haha

Wow, didn't know this was possible, thanks!

I know LOTS of people with iPhones and Macs, and not a single one of them are smug. I think people just dislike the Apple brand sooo much, they see what they want to see about the person using any Apple devices.
Personally, I like both. However, I dislike Windows though. Be it Windows XP, 7, or 8. To me, Windows seems clumsy.
Come to think of it, I dislike Microsoft in general.

People assume that they must pick between Apple and Google or Apple and Windows all the time. There are strengths and weaknesses for devices of both companies. For example, I use my Mac for video editing, as its software is generally much better than video editing software on Windows.
