Can i run the Android emulator and Windows Phone emulator at the same time?

I have a little annoyance in regards to emulators with Xamarin. I can't run the Android and Windows Phone emulators at the same time.

If I turn Hyper-V on, I can run the Windows Phone emulator, then I have to turn it off for Android (this requires a restart of the machine each time).

Is there any simple way around this, or will I just have to live with it?

Thanks

Download Visual Studio 2015 (Preview or CTP 6) and install the Visual Studio Emulator for Android. It will appear in your debug dropdown, and it's a Hyper-V emulator so it will run side-by-side with the Windows Phone emulator.
