All these updates are making me ravenous, I wonder why... ]]>May 20th 2010 11:57AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/20/android-2-2-froyo-officially-announced/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/20/android-2-2-froyo-officially-announced/
"much more than a push notification service designed to make up for a lack of basic features like multitasking,"


So, what does that mean? I'm not on the Android wagon yet, since I still have a few weeks to go until I can pick up my Evo. Does Android not multitask or something? What is that statement in reference to?]]>May 20th 2010 11:59AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/20/android-2-2-froyo-officially-announced/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/20/android-2-2-froyo-officially-announced/

This might be that something. Apple has a tendency to come out of nowhere with something that anticipates and exceeds the competition ... but I'm not sure they can beat Froyo.

it's referring to the push notification, one of the biggest inventions that apple has been talking for years in the past.

android does "fully" multitasking with no doubt, dude.]]>May 20th 2010 12:57PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/20/android-2-2-froyo-officially-announced/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/20/android-2-2-froyo-officially-announced/May 20th 2010 1:44PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/20/android-2-2-froyo-officially-announced/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/20/android-2-2-froyo-officially-announced/
Definitely App2SD. I’m getting tired of this “Low space” notification on my Nexus and thinking what should I uninstall before I can try out new app.

I would welcome a better power management ie, longer battery life. I could even welcome a low performance mode (available via settings) to make my RSS reading and web browsing experience longer. Opinions.

Yeah, I owned an AT&T Nexus One for a good month. It's not that it was horrible against, say, an iPhone 3GS or similar, but compared to another WVGA device like a Droid or Touch Pro 2, small text was nearly unreadable, edges looked jagged, and as everyone has pointed out, gradients are heavily banded. Black levels were great, yes, but considering the fact that the Nexus One is marketed as a "Web Phone," and the fact that 99% of "the web" is white background, it would seem like they could've chosen a regular LED-backlit LCD panel and ran with it.]]>May 20th 2010 1:31PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/20/android-2-2-froyo-officially-announced/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/20/android-2-2-froyo-officially-announced/

Odd, isn't Google also trying to be the "one company" that "controls the future" when it comes to mobile computing? Seriously, when are people going to admit that Google is a *business* out to make *money* and are not providing Android for free because it loves them? Enjoy your phone OS that relies on advertising, the control of information, and *your data* to make its money.

It's amazing how much Google has people snowed right now.]]>May 20th 2010 12:22PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/20/android-2-2-froyo-officially-announced/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/20/android-2-2-froyo-officially-announced/May 20th 2010 12:42PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/20/android-2-2-froyo-officially-announced/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/20/android-2-2-froyo-officially-announced/
