From Ziggytek: Specifically, ZodTTD’s PSX emulator, due to popular demand, is programmed for Android 2.1 and 2.2, with fast smartphones like the Nexus One, whose 1GHz Snapdragon processor screams. More »

Canada’s biggest CDMA carrier, Telus is reportedly getting the HTC Desire, which the company has relabeled the “Triumph.” Telus’ countdown timer to a major June 8th (which is, incidentally, one day after Steve Jobs‘ expected iPhone 4G/HD keynote) “Unleashing” could very well be for what would be the nation’s best domestic Android 2.1 smartphone.

Google’s official over-the-air Android 2.2 FroYo update for its only branded phone should be live within a few weeks, but for the impetuous and bored who own a Nexus One, you can install the new OS right now. More »

HTC has confirmed that the Droid Incredible, Evo 4G, MyTouch Slide, and Desire are on the priority list to receive Android 2.2 updates, but none of them is getting the new OS until the second half of this year. Although HTC has not made a statement about 2009 models, the adverb that “most” 2010 units will get FroYo indicates to me that there is no chance for the likes of the G1, MyTouch 3G, and Droid Eris since not “all” 2010 smartphones will be upgraded.

From Ziggytek: Make it “Photo and Video of the Day.” What you are staring at is rumored to be Google’s Android 2.2 “Froyo” operating system running on a Nexus One. One of the benefits (or blights, depending on your allegiances) of Google’s next smartphone OS is that Adobe Flash 10.1 is integrated. If this clip is genuine and is not simply a modified Android 2.1 or earlier ROM (I am not cognizant of an existing Android ROM that can run full Flash this well), then Ryan Stewart, the video’s uploader and self-professed Adobe “evangelist,” makes a cogent argument for Flash and Froyo.

There was no sense in Sprint’s selling the Google Nexus One when the HTC Evo 4G is so close to launch. Google should have offered its smartphone on Sprint’s CDMA network months ago when there was room for it. Like Verizon’s Droid Incredible, the Evo 4G surpasses the Nexus One in every way except price. In some humorous news, would you like to buy a T-Mobile MyTouch 3G Slide before its official release?
