That's not confirmed also, by the way - it appears that Android codename is following the alphabets:
Cupcake
Donut
Eclair
Froyo
Gingerbread?
Honeycomb?
Android 3.1, CodeName : HoneyComb
Android 3.1, CodeName : HoneyComb

Well, not everyone is geeky like you guys, and some Android users don't even bother what is Linux. It's an interesting fact that's good to know, but doesn't mean all Android users are developer-minded and have to know the story behind the naming convention This post has been edited by samurai1337: Aug 21 2010, 02:24 AM |

Kentang_peranchis Okay I'm trolling... *runs away* QUOTE(JustForFun @ Aug 21 2010, 09:14 AM) I thought Gingerbread was designed for better equipped device such as tablet PC ? Not entirely true... Even the current snapdragon processor is capable for Gingerbread (if what's said in the rumor is true anyway), and the processor technology will only get better for mobile devices, so no, you won't need a device with size of a tablet PC to use gingerbread Anyway, I'm getting SGS... which doesn't even have Froyo yet |

QUOTE(onscreen @ Aug 22 2010, 04:16 PM) The naming is very predictable. Following the pattern of sweetened food like donut and froyo you will know what to find for be it western or french confectionery. Yeah, I do really hope they continue the development on 2.2 branch - as most of the current Android users (heck, maybe even HTC Desire) won't be able to get any 3.x update.If Gingerbread rumor is true, Froyo should be the OS for the mainstream while Gingerbread is for the Flagship and Honeycomb maybe an update for both flagship and mainstream maybe? hmmm.. so much possibilites.. It's no good for Android users if the mid-range device they buy today won't be getting any updates as Google is only concentrating on 3.x |
