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!

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.

Still Waiting For Android 2.2
As you may know, I love my Android LG Shine Plus! Back in November, one of my favorite blogs, MobileSyrup (Canadian mobile news) wrote that the LG Shine Plus would be getting Android 2.2 "shortly." Well I am still waiting, and haven't heard anything about the update. Although I miss some of the features of 2.2 (browser speed, mobile hotspot, SD storage of apps), I would pick 2.1 over any version of iOS.

Android 2.3: Gingerbread
Today Google announced a new phone, the Samsung Nexus S, and a new version of Android: Gingerbread. The Nexus S is a typical high-end Android phone coming equipped with a 1GHz processor, 512 MB of RAM, 16 GB internal memory, and front and rear cameras. Gingerbread ties in nicely with the Nexus S since it supports Near Field Communication (NFC), which uses a chip in the phone to communicate with various sensors (i.e., using the phone as a credit card). Android 2.3 also brings some improvements to the keypad, UI tweaks, and various enhancements for multimedia. Not a huge step forward for Android, but Honeycomb is just around the corner.
