When your feet get cold you'll know that hell is freezing over. Shortly after what you're looking for will be released. :)

Listen guys not starting a pissing match was just asking a question. Saw a video on YouTube of android running on ipads. I am very familiar with android and very new to apple and I was just curious. Android on a ipad 2 would be a beast because the A5 and the rest of the hardware is pretty much way better than samsungs current tegra 2 Inside the galaxy tab

Didn't mean to engage in a pissing match. Frankly, I misread your original post and assumed you were asking if Android would be released on Apple products. That was the basis of my comment. I remain skeptical about how an "overlay" supporting Android apps is likely to be but I'm always happy to see hackers engaged in their hobby.

If you're jailbroken, check out Dreamboard and HoneyPad. I'm amazed how well it runs on my iPad2. You still have access to all of your normal applications, but I love the extended screen and it's new interactive widgets.

HoneyPad for iPad Brings Android Honeycomb To Your iPad | iPhoneMonsta.com

I believe it was $3.99 well spent. Plus you can jump back to normal iOS anytime you wish.

This is mainly for looks of an Android Tablet, the functions are fairly minimal. I have used various Android tablets and the HoneyPad theme does (can) not include many functioning aspects of the Android equivalent.

It is still a very commendable piece of work by the developer.
