Hi,
Not XP but I recently saw a post about installing Windows 98 on a Nokia
phone running Symbian. This is something you can do yourself at home and
something I'm playing with at the moment. As an aside I saw a similar
tutorial for installing Windows 3.1 (for those that want to re-visit the
good old days before the Blue Screen of Death made its debut!).
Give the device a bit more juice and XP is a real possibility.
