The Android 3.0 (Honeycomb) SDK has only been released for a few days and enterprising hackers have already created a ROM for the Nook Colour. It’s not exactly fast, but it is a hack after all.
The crafty hackers combined the Nook’s kernel with the SDK to come up with a “zombie”. Hardware acceleration is a big part of getting Honeycomb’s UI to be nice and snappy and hacker dhoshman over at the XDA forums says that he will be working on it over the weekend.
I’d like to see 3.0 for my Elocity A7, and since I know for a fact they will only be releasing it in the upcoming A10, I sure hope someone smarter than me will put a ROM out for it.
If you haven’t seen all of the Honeycomb goodness yet, check out our sneak peek here.
