I just found this awesome video of Android growth that Google just uploaded. It shows the growth of Android from the beginning up to it's current state of 350 000 activations per day!

New Motorola Xoom Commercial
The Motorola Xoom is being released this Thursday by Verizon, to build up some hype they released this kicka$$ commercial. I want one but I don't have $800 and I don't live in the US :(

Netflix Coming To Future Android Snapdragon Devices
Netfflix, the great paid streaming service will be finally coming to Android devices with Snapdragon processors. Apparently there are DRM issues that must be worked around, these can be solved (somehow?) with the Snapdragon processor. Since my phone does not have a Snapdragon, I will have to wait for the HTML5 app....when and if it ever comes out.

Will Your Canadian Android Device Receive An OS Upgrade?
I just came across this excellent spreadsheet for us Canadian Android users. It provides all of the carriers (13 of them) and their phones (57!), the OS they are currently running, and very importantly, if they will offer an upgrade. The good news is that 79% of phones are running 2.1 or higher, but only 30% are running 2.2 and 0% have 2.3. My LG Shine Plus will be receiving the 2.2 upgrade sometime this winter, but will not receive 2.3. Maybe rooting is in my future? Fragmentation is a PAIN!
