Android shows up on X200, caught on video

It seems like Google's Android has a bad case of wanderlust, spreading its wings and making appearances on all sorts of devices after Mobile-facts showed it could be done. The little green guy quickly headed over to HP's Mini-Note 2133, and now we've got footage of it in the wild, installed on a Lenovo X200. The machine goes from a cold boot to UI in a solid 25 seconds, and while we still don't think the resulting interface is exactly keyboard and mouse friendly, we're excited to see what the future holds for our favorite synthetic life form/operating system.

Yeah, I've been thinking once I get my SSD (one of these months) I'll use my old hard drive to try to hack Android onto my X61s. I haven't been thrilled with the performance of most operating systems, and although I think the SSD will remedy that 100%, Android's low resource usage would be nice.
