Android Hands-On Video: It's Fast, It's Still Not There

There is a great story over at Gizmodo.com with a video of Android.

From the site:

We have been playing with the Android prototypes
scattered through the Mobile World Congress here in Barcelona. ARM had
theirs running on one of their lower-end processors. No fancy graphics
demos, no iPhone-style multimedia fizzbang, just a humble ARM9
processor in a plain white prototype "to demonstrate the scalability of
Android" and serve as a "development platform." Our verdict: it works,
it's fluid, but it's boring. Qualcomm's Android prototype, however, is
a real beast.
