Supposedly there are some magical Touchpads out there with Android pre-installed on them, but that won't help you load it up your new collectors item. Thankfully the Cyanogen Mod team is hard at work on a port of Google's mobile OS for your HP slate and aiming to claim the bounty on its head. It's still in the extremely early stages. At the moment it does little more than boot up and unlock with the aide of ADB -- even the touchscreen isn't working just yet -- but it shouldn't be too long before you can swap out webOS with CM7. Check out the brief demo video below.

We now have some reliable people working on getting Android on the TouchPad.. The Cyanogen Mod team! CM7 would be brilliant on this device - I have it on my phone at the moment :P

Still haven't got myself one yet.

Good to hear CM is working on it, I use it as my phone's stable ROM :)
