If that's the reason, then it is totally wrong reason and the adjustment is needed in your head, not on the device.

If you really need to run android applications, you should run them in android device. What kind of applications you think are missing for Harmattan?
No obsession here. If I were obsessed with Android, I would be running an android device. I like many others would appreciate a few more options, who wouldn't? it's not needed but appreciated. You might as well bash anyone who has an emulator because they are obsessed with playing games outside of their OS and have an 800000 game envy. Bash anyone who recently installed the Hydra widget platform because they would like to try some firefox stuff. Bash those who port apps from other OS's because it didn't originally come on the N9. Who cares. I like the fact it can all be done on the N9. That the flexibility is there. Not many can say that for their device.

I would like to see any ACL come to fruition not because of how cool Android is, rather that finally someone committed "taboo" and broke the app barrier. It takes some balls to do so.

There is only one android app I'm after and that is the F1 app. Not the live timing one, but the one with track positioning, nice gui, etc. But who knows what other ones I might appreciate if the option was there. So far I have everything I need with my N9.
