How hard would it be for apple to put the android stack on the iphone? Android is based on a linux underpinning and google says it can be swapped onto different linux flavors.

I mean android copied a lot of the gui elements of the iphone and the iphone has a superior method for entering text. Its like swapping out a Porsche engine for a Yugos
