For someone using an Android Operating system created by Google....You sure don't know how to Google.
We're assuming eclair is 2.0, but for all we know it could be 1.6.1 or even 3.0
An éclair is a long, thin pastry made with choux pastry filled with a cream and topped with icing.
The dough, which is the same as that used for profiterole, is piped into an oblong shape with a pastry bag and baked until it is crisp and hollow inside. Once cool, the pastry then is filled with a coffee- or chocolate-flavoured pastry cream (crème pâtissière), custard or whipped cream, and topped with fondant icing of the same flavour as the filling. Other fillings include pistachio- and rum-flavoured custard, fruit-flavoured fillings, or chestnut purée.
In some parts of the United States, long johns are marketed under the name éclairs, though the two are not identical. A long john uses donut pastry and is typically filled with vanilla pudding, making it a simpler and inexpensive alternative to the éclair.
The Cadburys chocolate and confectionery company also sells a chocolate-filled candy by the name in certain parts of the world.

Not my next phone... also not a game changer...

If it had a SnapDragon, I'd totally go to CS, they've got great coverage in my area.

See Droid Shadow (also known as Droid Extreme though there is debate about that)
Yeah, I love HTC though. I'll probably never leave them or XDA.

Out with the right one then.
I'm looking for a snapdragon also.. won't move from the Hero until then! They say that this is the first of many... so hopefully the next one will be the Shadow.... or Desire... Incredible... etc.
Hints from some CS reps point towards the Desire to come out soon after the Milestone...

And the best part is, Android is at or above the market share the iPhone had in it's first year of release. And it's outsold the iPhone for the past two quarters. It's impossible to compete with a multi-phone platform

PLEASE let this alleged hardware issue be the addition of a trackball/trackpad and a better casing than cheap plastic that gizmodo reported.
Let this be a standalone phone and not a Galaxy S with Stock Android.
i think i read on giz that it will be plastic. think i may wait for nexus 3

word...
Google needs some damn designers...lol. People with vision...the Nexus S/2 should looked like the HTC ONE concept some design student mocked up...with a few additions for usability.
You guys know Google doesnt' actually design phones right?
They basically call up sony/htc/apple/samsung and ask what new platforms/devices they have coming up. The respective companies show them a line up, google bids on them, and then they tweak it slightly (color/finish/very minor hw changes).
Cool, so rumour was true I hope it will be released soon...
I really hope it lives up to the nexus name. Not just a galaxy-S running stock android with an unlockable bootloader...
yay! coming soon with Gingerbread. 4 inch screen with trackball please.

The Nexy looks a way lot better than this. Atleast that's my opinion.
Why did that not have froyo on the phone when it was released? Froyo was out for a while before the phone was released, so does anybody have any idea why they didn't start out with froyo? Did they like ecairs better than ice cream? Who knows?

Because they didn't.
/thread
The development cycles on these phones is 6 or 7 months if not longer. When they started on the phone, FroYo probably wasn't to manufacturers yet. It is not easy at all to change course with software projects. And incredibly expensive to chunk everything that you have and start over. So they build it on eclair, and work on FroYo when its released, also you have all of the politics involved about which phones in your lineup gets updated, how many developers to put on each piece of hardware. I don't think most people realize the amount of planning that goes into any software written for profit. You'd probably **** your self if you saw some of my Gantt Charts, time lines, flow charts and other various wastes of paper that are done before a single line of code is typed (with the exception of prototyping) You can't just take a leap and start coding, switch gears 11 times, then hope to ever hit a deadline or budget. There isn't a lot of cost in the actual product of software, but the minds that power it are not cheap labor.

And I thought the OP was late to the party...
Don't blame google. Crap websites with no hits have been re-publishing that 'story' since the third week of December to get them to the top of news sites and search results. It is a marketing strategy for weak traffic sites.
Im sick of these threads -_- everytime i see it my heart starts to race then i click on it and get sad 8(
well the op certainly lived up to his name lol
jk dude. honest mistake
haha yeah i feel pretty bad about this messup. I got so excited until i decided to recheck the page. then just an overwhelming sense of sadness and regret came over me.

Let's face it once google announced the ics as the next version of android why do some people still want gb when ics can be leaked and used on our phones. Google needs to be the one doing the updates not the carriers and phone makers. Google should open a beta and prebeta builds to all who want them.

For someone who's been around since the 70's you seem to not understand the development life cycle of a product to be expecting such an asinine thing to happen.
Using win7 (retail) to win8 (alpha) argument proves your failure to grasp that.
BTW, i love how decad3nce pwned your last post. LOL

Because to us Gingerbread is the most important release ever! Gingerbread was made with Hummingbird in mind..ICS is a huge improvement for dual core phones..while we definitely get some new features, you would not notice such huge performance increases as you do with Gingerbread.
Locked. OP, check your pm's.
