lol, when I think of phones now-a-days I cant help but think of the N-gadget I think it was nokia right?or N-gauge it was a flop no matter what its name was. But to think my cell phone can handle games like my computer and soon my ps3/Xbox360 is really exciting! Google you are god of the cell phone world and you have only just got in the game.
oh crap! I think I figured out who the anti-christ is! the little android dude!
Its gingerbread and google never said that its gonna be os 3.0 its probably gonna be 2.5

Read about another Android update for Q4 2010
Going to be called Gingerbread - don't know what it is with all these sweet names for Android updates? The one before Froyo was called Eclair.
Exciting though, seems Android are really pushing at the moment
Yep, Android is moving at a very fast advanced pace
K just read about the Unreal engine being used on some games for iPuke. I love android and all but I am freaking sick of the excuses. I have been on android since september of 08 with the g1 and I just don't get it. I'm telling you now google, unless you get moving on this I am going to have to move to the dark side for a much richer multimedia experience
I've waited too long as it is! I keep telling my son (who has friends with iPhones) to just wait, developers will come to android.....boo!
The gaming advocate recently left google which won't be helping.
I'd be happy with an official version of Scrabble.

What the...?!? That's NOT what I asked for! Shoo! Shoo! You go away with your bad news! Can someone please find me a replacement who had good news? (And don't tell me about the Sony-Ericcson playstation droid whatever. I know about that)....
Android devices capable of really nice 3d gaming are just ~6 months old, so relax Did you saw Gameloft's games released recently? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OxdZWhga0Vw
Also I don't really know, what do you want from Google? :-/ Maybe something like ADC, but for games.
wait for ginger
ginger bread is supposed to be more focus on gaming and multimedia (and terga 2 tablets wont hurt)
Relax. There has been some serious talk of a PSP Phone which can only mean that there is going to be some serious games running on android.

Mmmmmm Ginger....Oooh! MaryAnn...mmmmmm.....
Those gameloft games look pretty sweet. Now the vibrant has bt 3.0. I wonder if I could use my bt keyboard and mouse...hmmmmm
I am a big fan of the "Nexus" brand myself, it feels like Google's version of the iPhone, in that there is no carrier bloatware, or brand name UI's, just the "pure" Android OS.
I have owned the Nexus-One, and now the Nexus-S, and liked both these phones a lot. Before that I had an iPhone3G, it was cool when it first came out, but now I just feel the iOS is dated, and not up to date with Android or WinMo7.
Just curious as to what the next "nexus" phone will be, and when it's due out ? I heard rumors it will be an HTC made phone, called the Nexus-Two, running the next generation Snapdragon processor, that is dual core 1.2ghz. Not sure if it will be a 2.4 Honeycomb phone, or the 3.0 Ice cream ?
It will probably be a tablet with honeycomb on it.
we just got the second incarnation can we not talk about this now
All i know is that people are going to ***** cuz it doesnt have NFC *rolls eyes*
That brings up another question too, what are approx release dates for Honeycomb and Ice cream ?
I think Honeycomb is the 2.4 # ? And is that the one where the developers have been bragging will bring the MAJOR revisions to the UI, and really be a big leap for Android, not just the little changes from like 2.2 Froyo to 2.3 Gingerbread, but a huge leap forward ? Plus be the first release that is made for dual core ?
Then not sure what Ice Cream 3.0 is, if Honeycomb brings the major UI changes.
My assumption is that HTC will regain access to AMOLED and Google will return to them. And the Tegra platform is looking to be the most mainstream next year, they even announced Tegra 3
Nexus 2, Nexus 3, Nexus X, Nexus G, whatever

It's most likely that Honeycomb is 3.0 as it will be a massive jump for tablets and phones. the 2.4 rumor was just a random tipster from androidandme.com which has no credibility at all.
But we don't know until Google officially announces it.
Thanks for the info Yeah I heard "Honeycomb" comes out on the next gen tablets due out in Feb, and then will be brought to the phones in like May or so, to be released before iPhone 5.
The spy shots of that 10" Motorola tablet looks pretty sweet.
Motorola Nexus Tab Will be out early 2011 with Honeycomb.
As far as a phone goes? No one knows. And won't know til late 2011.
I think I read something recently where Google said the Nexus brand phones will not just be the annual Christmas release only. But that there will be a "nexus" device launched with every major OS update. And that the next Nexus device will be a Honeycomb tablet. And the next Nexus phone will be running Android 3.0 "ice cream"
Guess time will tell...for now I am very happy with my Nexus-S
Well it usually takes a year for them to release such a large incremental update.

Gingerbread - 2.3
Honeycomb - 3.0 (for tablets and phones soon)
Ice Cream -3.5
The more important question is, how many desert names can they come up with to apply for the rest of the alphabet? And what happens after Z?
Z = Zingers an American Snack cake... as for after that, it is anyone's guess. Maybe fruit?
Nexus M and Motorola makes it. Just a guess.
I can't wait for cookie dough.
Nexus is chosen from whomever sells the most Android phones. Nothing more.
The next Nexus will be, compared to the specifications, very fast.
It will also lack something people are going to start a couple of thousand threads about.

That's my guess as well. I see Google giving everyone a shot at the Nexus brand, in the spirit of openness. Not sure how the names will go, but it won't be held to Samsung/HTC, it'll go to whoever has the best to offer and can provide the best bang-for-buck.
Yeah I'm guessing Moto. Something doesn't feel right about them going back to HTC-- I doubt Google will want any speculation that there is a favored hardware developer. Google is juggling a ton of Android handset makers and will likely do everything to make sure they don't shift to WP7.

Seriously, I saw a couple of reviews of the Nexus S which had actually 'NFC isn't very useful yet' as a con! That's just stupid.
On topic: I really hope Sony Ericsson. I would never buy a 'normal' Android phone from SE, because of the drastically changed interface and the Xperia X10 with 2.1 not getting updates anymore, ever. But their phones are soooo sexy. Look at the upcoming Arc! Wow! If they co-operate with Google, the only thing SE will be the master of is the outside of the phone. Google determines the interface, the updates, if dual-core is needed, etc. etc.
Google have officially announced Android 2.4 will drop this summer (2011);
http://www.pocket-lint.com/news/37819/google-ice-cream-android-2-4
No it's not an official announce at all. Didn't come from Google.
And as Honeycomb is 3.0 Ice Cream will be at leat 3.x or 4.0.

maybe even 5.0 ... srsly ? u guys all thought gingerbread is 3.0 , and now u still talking about 3.x and 4.0 ? my god
Am I missing something in that article or the statement "multiple sources inform us" along with the fact that there is no link to those sources, is the equivalent of "my uncle, who knows a guy whose cousin works as a maid for the guy who takes out the garbage and happens to be married to the lady that opened the door at the Starbucks for me the other day that happens to know the janitor working in 3rd shift at Google told me that"?
LOL
It must be something like that...but my uncle said it is for real 2.4

Honeycomb (3.0) is tablet orientated. Sources close to google have confirmed Ice-Cream will be 2.4
Is there any ROM for 3.0 based on the preview released by Google?
Can't wait to see the screeshots
Lol 2.4? Let's hack that.
Is it necessary to release this version if Android 3.0 still has the phone mode?
The XPERIA Arc thing was a build.prop error, move along.
ye ye ye 2.4
summer is too late
ok very interesting
nice! hopefully that much improvement like 2.2 and 2.3
Well, even if its not confirmed, its still great!
Well, even if its not confirmed, its still great! I LOVE ANDROID
BURN APPLE BURN!
Jk, I still like you Apple, Androids just better.
hopefully it wont have as many bugs as 2.3 seems to be having. It feels like 2.3 was pushed out to get the Nexus S out, and it will be quickly replaced by 2.4 coming in May.
Which phones can support Ice Cream?
Hey everyone.
So, I dusted off my Motorola Backflip (which wasn't a great phone really, but it had a touchscreen)
Back in the day, it used to run Cupcake 1.5, was never updated until I flased CM7.2
Got me thinking
What was the best 1.5 phone?
The best 1.5 app?
The best 1.5 ROM?
I was a bit of a late adopter to the Android scene, and I'd like to know what a few veterans made of this new open-source mobile-OS, back when Apple was making all the headlines.
Cupcake was good at the old age (around 1990 s).
But now all apps minimum requirements are 2.2 i.e, froyo..
So now a days no beginner would prefer 1.5 also not 2.1 (ecliers.)

1990's??? You must own a time machine and have taken your old android device back in time...
If Android existed in the 90's I would imagine we would have far surpassed iOS before the first iPhone even launched. We would be on Zebra Cakes by now.
