Google takes Android product codenames
literally -- that's why you'll find a giant
Eclair,
Donut and
Cupcake chilling on the GooglePlex lawn. This week, they were joined by the object tastefully pictured above.
Frozen yogurt, anyone? You might not care to eat this one, as it's probably made of foam, but Engadget will likely bring you a spoonful
next week when we attend Google I/O. Video after the break.
Update: And just like that the video has been set to private. Not like video of a stationary object really adds much value anyway. Nevertheless, it
already arrived at the GooglePlex where it's currently hanging out -- under wraps -- with its foam siblings.
Gotta love google and their codenames.
@shhaight Gotta love Google & their everything.
@shhaight
That's a lot of Calories. ._.;;
@shhaight Don't you think that GooglePlex will be filled with delicious food! =D
@shhaight i wish they'd call the next one apple crumble. that would be YUMMY! lol.
@shhaight Gotta love Engadget, this video has been up since May 5th also I sent this in yesterday, but its ok you don't have to thank me
Hansel and Gretel would be scared.
gahhhh private video ^$%@#$%*&!!
@annoynimous This leaked video is now being investigated by California's Special Dessert Task Force.
@annoynimous
I "heart" your avatar... for a reason
@Aguilera
Looks like Kirby ate a HTC device, I wonder what his powers are?
First POST???
LOve google. Hate AT&T service!!!
Hate apple for HOARDING features that even free phones have only to try to sell you a new phone the next year with these simple features!
the video is Private
cant watch
@8th Gamer yeah whats up with that come on engadget, posting a private video Grrr haha I wanted to see that (:
Android world domination! Go Android! Google - as the leading software house and the most wanted IT-employer in the world has done excellent job - again.
The guy that designs the desert statues for Google, put the video up before Google was ready to reveal it. Now the video has been removed or at least made private. It's currently under wraps next to the other statues. TechCrunch tried to take a peak at it but were discovered before they code remove the covers.
Video no worky on mi iPad.
@angemon89
Really? thats a surprise!
/s
@angemon89 >>Video no worky on mi iPad.
Use the Froyo app, it works fine on my wePad :)
damn, private'd with the quickness ecks-dee
private video
Is the nexus one name a reference to blade runner?
I thought it was. Seeing as Nexus-6 replicants are androids.
@ajkun They got sued by the daughter of the now dead author of Blade Runner. $$$
@TheGM Phillip K. Dick, great sci-fi writer.
Oh buggers! Darn thing not workin on my iPhone! Guess I should get an htc with frozen yogurt inside? Bloody hell htc bring out another phone like the evo! gsm! Boom boom pow!
I hate apples in my frozen yogurt?
Really? Private video? Did somebody manage to download/reupload it?
the friggin video is blocked
Yes please, can I have second?
I don't think anyone's pointed it out yet, but the video is private.
On a more serious note, does anyone know when 2.2 is supposed to be released?
@m854 Announced next week, probably pushed to N1 around then and others soon after.
Dam I would love to jump on the Android bandwagon, too bad Mr. Jobs got my balls.
@anotherworld Jobs got a good grip of your balls?
@jussipussi YEs...I love games and the iphone has the best games....That will never happen on Android...and if it does..Iphone will have 30x more great games....Sorry but thats the truth...
@jussipussi lol
@mrjaggs Laugh but its true.....Every week new games come out that kick ass....I am screwed...As long as there is a JB for my iphone, i am happy..
FroYo is gonna be sweet on the Evo. FroYoEvo?
@Jacob1 I doubt it will get Froyo this year. It's been 8 months since HTC promised Eclair for the Hero and it's still not out. Sense is a nice interface but i'm not sure whether it's worth the lack of firmware upgrade support.
someone using firefox can save it to there desk top if they saw it before it was pulled by typing and entering this in the address bar about:cache and searh for .flv
U know android would be pretty cool if it was not fragmented so bad u know by the time every 1 gets froyo there will be another software update out there that the phone makers will have to deal with I mean this is crazy u got some devices running 1.5 some running 1.6 some running 2.1 that is crazy. If there is another software update I am missing please feel free 2 add to my point at least apple updates all of there products at once so there is no worry if ur running the most up to date software or worry about an app being incompatiable with my device because it was designed for android 2.x and as far as the flash debate goes it goes like this 80+ MILLION people is alot of buying power ALOT so for those websites not willing to at least create a HTML5 site for those mobile devices they sure r missing out on alot of revenue I mean I could care less about what happens or who wins it's like I said 80+ MILLION people is alot those companies not willing to change r losing out period
@ihve2cuties
Punctuation dude.
@ihve2cuties LOL...still looks messy.....
@ihve2cuties Thats the reason i don't jump to Android..then you got some phones that lack the ram or cpu power than others...messy...like you said at least Iphone gets the updates....oh and no games on Android...what like 30 and most of them suck.
@ihve2cuties No, you didn't. It was too difficult to read, so I skipped your post after the first few lines.
@ihve2cuties you might have conveyed your point but you still sound like a douche
@ihve2cuties
Why can we never just have a nice FUN, enjoyable article about Google or Apple without some rant about fragmentation or some draconian god-like control over the world? Don't you people ever get all fanboyed out?!
@ihve2cuties
Holy paragraph batman!
@ihve2cuties
I like how you use the wors "period" in your defense comment, but never actually use one. Douch
@normanb20
like I said before if u want punctuation take your ass to English class don't get mad because what I'm saying is true just don't read it or don't comment unless u can dispute what I'm saying PERIOD!!!!!! Or just keep going and make yourself look like a bigger ass because u can't dispute it lol
@jamesots
then y did u comment
