YES!!!! if you want a hacked version of the emulator port that we have on the SDK. It can be done, but frankly it sucks and it is not something that is worth the time or effort, we had it on the nook, but without the source all the work that the CM team would have to be done through reverse engineering and making changes and hacking everything else, just because we dont have the source to build from.
so NO honeycomb will not be coming to the Touchpad because the full source has not and will not be released, wait for ICS. It hopefully will support both Tablet form factor (ie honeycomb'ish appeal and use) and Phone form factor Functionality.
To Recap
- YES Honeycomb "can" be ported on the Touchpad once CM is done. (much the same that Sense "can" be ported to other devices - see Droid 1 attempts)
- NO it will not be done 'successfully' (just ask deeper-blue and the others who wasted alot of time on the nook color)
- NO the CM7 team will not put out a port (and i can go out on the limb and say none of the devs will either)
- All the time, effort, and work to porting HC to the TP would be Astronomically more difficult due to not having the code
Hopefully we can stop having those questions posted a hundred times in the Dev Threads about porting, and before you flame for mentioning the Nook Color as being a Old Device, and not as powerful remember this... The Nook Had a leg up on the TP because it shipped with Android on board.
