I presume most of the smart phone users don't have the IT background. They're probably not confident of flasing ROMs or doing something like that. Once the step-by-step procedure's done, they will enjoy flashing the phone over and over again.
Honestly speaking, I never expect that Android will replace Windows Mobile 6.1/6.5 on X1. However, it's really something interesting to me.
It's a sort of the alternative to the users who are interested but not going to purchase an Android phone in the near future, isn't it?
