So by now I hope you’ve heard, Google released Android 1.6 to the developer community. Yay for donuts! Should be seeing it available for upgrade possibly as early as October which would be awesome.
There’s no mention of an SMS time stamp fix yet, you can be sure if there isn’t one I am going to be an unhappy geek. Which may finally motivate me to get off my butt and flash with Cyanogen as I’ve been meaning to.
Some things that are mentioned:
- Different screen sizes and resolutions – Ok this could be neat, will have to see what the options are
- New txt-to-speech API – Never tried the old one, may have to do for comparison
- Market upgrade – This is the one I’m most interested to see aside from the time stamps… a quick search of *everything* could be useful. And will ti work better? I often get failures when I’m searching.
As more information is released I’ll share what I find. Let me know your thoughts! For now I’ll leave you with the official introduction video:
