Android 2.0 source released, runs on T-Mobile G1

Google quietly released the Android 2.0 source code last night. No sooner had it been released when the capable hacker community had it up and running on the T-Mobile HTC G1. The speed with which it was ported is either a testament to the skillz of those who do Linux programming or the stability of the OS build. In any event, it’s within the realm of possibility that a solid build for the G1 could come as soon as this weekend.
