Samsung said its Android 2.3 update for the Galaxy S would come in
mid-April and, by golly, it meant it
literally. Sometime during the night between the 15th and 16th days of this month, the Korean manufacturer's Kies servers started serving up a fresh portion of Gingerbread to Galaxy S owners in parts of Europe, and now reports are coming in of users successfully updating their
Hummingbird-equipped handsets. It's a limited rollout, benefiting the Nordic countries, Holland and Germany first, but we doubt Samsung will hold out on the rest of Europe for much longer. If you want to try your luck, boot up your Kies updating utility and pray to your nearest tech deity.
[Thanks to everyone who sent this in]
Update: Vodafone UK is now
dishing out this update to its Galaxy S owners as well.
