I had it installed to the SSD, it would force close all the time, freeze then die.

Also, the keyboard would come up on screen when typing, which made it laggy as hell. And it was just slow.

Expect something soon. I noticed a few days ago that the master branch over at http://android.git.kernel.org/ now has x86 in the build options. It also moves from JDK 5 to JDK 6. Intel was contributing to an x86 port, so its probably the code from that being merged into the master. I haven't tried building it yet, but maybe when I have some time I'll try to get it running in a VM.

Lol :P

I'm sure even if you were in the right you could never take down apple :D

If in real danger they would just have you killed.. They just give you one of those exploding iPhone 3Gs's or one of the easily combustible iPhone 4s :)

Death by iPhone!
