Well, I couldn’t help but post about this!  The gurus at xda developers have figured out how to get Android running on the HTC Touch.

Work has actually been going on for a while now, but this is the best we’ve seen so far –it’s all there, including a custom soft keyboard, and it looks like it runs pretty well, although we’re told there are some issues with scaling the UI to QVGA and that GPS, Bluetooth and USB aren’t operable yet.

    This is actually for HTC Vogue ...I have the older version of HTC touch... i.e. the one with OMAP 850 - 201MHz, the android is available for vogue/CDMA version (which had 400MHz qualcomm processor).

    Is there a working version for HTC touch....(mine is MDA touch - elf0300)

    Thanks,

    Cheers,
    Richard.
