HTC HD2 gets a shot at MeeGo, still suffering from abandonment issues
Poor HD2, it could never know life as a
(legitimate) Windows Phone 7 handset, and instead has to sustain the indignity of hack after hack -- slouching back to the slums of its Windows Mobile 6.5 default as its
only respite. Well, here's another shovelful
of shame: MeeGo 1.1 has been ported to
the phone, and it looks pretty snazzy. It
runs about as well as anything runs MeeGo
right now (which is to say: very poorly), but we see some promise in this OS as a
deliciously open Android alternative, and
the basic UI seems very comfy on the
HD2's ahead-of-its-time gargantuan
screen. Check out a video of MeeGo in
action after the break. If you listen very closely you can hear the sound of the HD2
weeping large, colorful tears.

我这种正常折腾HD2的人表示压力很大啊。。。
