I’ve only had two critiques of Android so far: 1) OS Fragmentation & 2) some tweaks to the UI/UX would be nice.

As Google has a solid history of doing, they are stepping up their game with the next release of Android 2.3 (Gingerbread). Google is said to be “laser-focused” on improving the UI so carriers don’t need custom skins such as: Motoblur, Ninjablur, SenseUI, etc…

Two possible, positive benefits if this pans out: 1) the end of these custom UI’s from carriers that slow down the devices and cause so much pain while waiting patiently for them to upgrade, and 2) a better user experience is really welcomed!

The best part, it is rumored that Android 2.3 (Gingerbread) will be coming Q4 of this year, and then after that it will move over to a year;y iteration/release process.

Interesting overall fact about Android I didn’t know,

If this news is true, it means that Google Android has had five variants that has a code name taken from the cake, such as Android 5.1 as ‘Cupcake’, Android 1.6 ‘Donut’, Android 1.2 ‘Enclair’, Android 2.2 ‘Froyo’ (Fozen Yogurt) and Android 3.2 ‘Gingerbread ‘. If the note all the names that have the prefix letter alphabet C, D, E, F and G. An intelligent approach than Google, while the use of a snack/cakes makes this platform so impressed more “sweet” and sound friendly for the user.” – via Oki Rosgani
