Here’s some good news for TouchPad users. HP has released the Android source code that was found in one of the TouchPads that ran Android OS out-of-the-box. The code was handed over to the CyanogenMod Team who are working on a proper port of Android OS for TouchPad.
The code has now been uploaded and though we’re one step closer to experience a flawless build of Android on TouchPad, the Wi-Fi driver is still missing. However, the good news is that the Wi-Fi driver is also based on GPL, which means HP can release the Wi-Fi driver code too but only after an ongoing investigation.
If you’re feeling itchy, you can try the Alpha ICS build for TouchPad.
