Who do you think built the Nexus One?
Not having, is a lame excuse - home developers have compiled the source (available freely at source.android.com) and made ROMs that run on the Dream.
I would REALLY hate to hear HTC say that they cannot do it, but John Doe Developer at home can. That would be a bit embarrassing for them!
There's a difference between WANTING to do it, and HAVING to do it.
Apparently, they do NOT WANT to do it, and think they DO NOT HAVE to do it.
Only our wallets will change their minds.
I have asked everyone I know where I work (11,000+ employees) to put HTC on their "to avoid" list, and mentioned it to everyone I know.
That is just pure BS. If they are NOT going to update the android phones, then they need to leave android alone, and continue with WinMo. All they are going to do is give android a bad name, and rip a bunch of people off.
By this time next year, how many 1.5 compatible apps do you REALLY think will be in the App Market?
