TG Daily - iPhone now boots Linux, soon to boot Android?
Stop the presses! It's the apocalypse!!! The iPhone Dev Team has created a basic port of the Linux 2.6 kernel to the iPhone. Right now, it seems to be just a measly command line, but needless to say, this paves the way for something much more significant. Google's Linux-based, open-source Android cell phone OS may soon be running on an iPhone near you. If this ever happened, things would get real interesting for sure - Apple's rep of creating a secure, locked-down platform would be completely destroyed.
