Video: Android 3.0 Honeycomb On The Nook Colour
With the Barnes and Noble Nook Colour being rooted here and overclocked there, it’s no surprise that the latest version of Android – 3.0 Honeycomb – that has already been seen on a few soon-to-be-released tablets, has found its way onto the favorably abused/augmented device. The video shows Android 3.0 Honeycomb running smoothly on the Nook Colour. However, since the code used to root the device with is an early build, independent developer Deeper-blue (whose hands we see in the video) managed to get the hardware accelerated graphics working, but not so for the accelerometer, sound and WiFi. Once Google releases the source code for the OS, we may be seeing a new video showing all, if not more of what Honeycomb can do. But until then, we still have an awesome depiction of what Honeycomb looks like in use.
