A poster in the OQO Talk forums claims to have hacked his pocket-PC into a device capable of running Leopard. Check out his video here.

 

The forum poster wants to finish the project before providing how-to details and warns it's definitely not a plug and play procedure.

 

The OQO model 02 has a 1.6GHz VIA C7M ULV processor,1GB of DDR2 SDRAM. Supports 3G HDSPA, 802.11a/b/g Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 2.0 connectivity.

 

OQO was founded by the creators of the original TiBook. When Apple refused to allow them to create a teeny-tiny Mac, they left to form OQO.

 

We spoke with OQO, and while they can't officially support Leopard running on their device, they believe this will show Apple that users want a fully functioning hand-held computer beyond the iPhone. 

 

What do you think? Is he running Leopard or skinned Vista? Sound off in comments.
