Has Christmas come early for Android fans? It seems so as a double whammy of promising rumours has hit the web.
Firstly, Android 2.3 could finally be on its way and even if Android updates are often notoriously slow and messy once Gingerbread is out at least we can see what it offers before we start getting impatient waiting for it to hit our smartphones.
The rumour stems from Notion Ink CEO Rohan Shravan, makers of Android tablet devices who has strongly hinted that the platform is set to debut soon on his company blog:
“6th December is another big day for Android and you will find out how fast Notion Ink can work. (Eden is extremely compatible with 2.3)” it's all about what's between the parenthesis. Unless he's messed up and meant to type 2.2 then 2.3 is coming today.
Plus back in November, Eric Schmidt showed off both Gingerbread/Android 2.3 and the Nexus S at the Web 2.0 summit, and promised both the Nexus and Android 2.3 would be unveiled in a few weeks.
And now, a few weeks later it seems like the right time for a Google announcement or two.
We'll keep you informed as and when news comes in.
