Earlier this month Boost Mobile announced the Samsung Galaxy Prevail, the first decent Android handset to land on the Sprint prepaid subsidiary. It's slated to be released just two days from now, and keeping up with its seemingly new demeanor, Samsung has already released the Froyo kernel source code over at the Open Source Developers Center.

While its tiny 3.2 inch screen and crummy 2MP camera certainly don't make this phone anything to write home about, I think it's nice that Sammy is paying attention to the little guys and big guys alike.

You can grab the source download by going here.

Cameron is a self-made geek with an affinity for all (okay... most) things tech. His love for Android has been noticed in some unlikely places - he once went to a concert and upon meeting the band, the singer said "You're like, Android king, right? Can you you tell me why this doesn't run flash?" and handed Cam his Optimus S.

    This is good news. I've been thinking of cutting expenses by moving to Boost (from T-Mobile), but have been waiting for this phone, an entry-level Android. With the release of the source code, perhaps CM7 will be ported for easy flashing, at least I hope it will be.
