    Default T-Mobile to push out four Android updates this year, maybe every year


    While I was at the T-Mobile myTouch 3G event earlier today, a rep from T-Mobile whispered a few sweet nothings into my ear. I didn’t think anything of it because PR folk are always trying to butter me up, but there was something about Android updates that popped up.

    Apparently, T-Mobile will be pushing out four Android updates this year or I’m lead to believe, but four updates were definitely mentioned. Two being minor while the other two being major updates for the OS. 1.1 was the minor and 1.5 was the first major leaving two more updates. Other details were not privy to me, but the next will be Donut (obvs). I’m afraid that’s it, though.

    And because Devin made the images for me, I’ll post both of them to keep him happy.

    Hmm...I wonder what else they could add...(AutoRotate/soft keyboard is already here...)

    Maybe a few optimization tweaks for those who don't know/want root? ~_~

    So this means that Google will be pushing out four Android releases per year, because to the best of my knowledge, TMobile isn't writing any underlying code for Android.

    Awfully ambitious of them and explains why they haven't had time to update their roadmap to reflect their plans.
    I blame

    Keep in mind there is nothing to say that its four "G1" updates, maybe the last two are prepping the "mytouch"(who's autistic 4 year old came up with that name?)for Donut.
