INFOBAR, a Different Android
Aside from the well known HTC Sense UI, now we see a totally different approach, widget based interface for Android from au.
But it reminds me WP7…

Just Won a Galaxy Tab at Google I/O Extended
Went to Google Irvine office today for the 2011 Google I/O Extended, and being the luckiest guy among 80 people in the afternoon, I won a 7” Samsung Galaxy Tab (3G model, Spirit) after they picked the 5th raffle ticket (Yeah, owners of first four tickets were leaving early).

Why bother upgrading Android anyway?
Andy: Well, even to me, when we released the first version, it didn’t feel like a 1.0, it kind of felt like a 0.8. If you look at where we were 18 months ago and where we are today, that just makes the future brighter. Because the rate at which we went from that kind of 0.8 to 2.2 was so fast that we’re just earning how to master that type of engineering—that type of iterative engineering—and all of the innovation, I mean it’s game on. There is going to be stuff that’s just going to blow your mind. In 6 months. Before it was 18 months, now it’s 6 months.
Actually, you saw this before, and it’s called HTC Hero.
- First released on 2009.08 with Android 1.5.
- Two months later, a promised 1.6 update skipped.
- And another two months later, 2009.12, 2.0 upgrade ANNOUNCED, scheduled to be released on 2010.04.
- But it turned out with nothing for totally 6 months.
- Finally, 2.1 released on 2010.05.
Eventually, vendors will start selling upgradable androids with no software upgrade (in the future) at all, just like those cheap-ass $0 cellphones, CHEAP.

Suggestion
Google can try to create a Buzz Game Centre that INVITES all the Gmail users in no time, then Android MIGHT have chances be #1.

What’s different between “switching 6 running apps” and “launching ∞ apps one at a time” ?
No different, stupid.
Btw, nice review, Garrett.
