Slight Correction

Rogers also just started offering another Android phone this month. The Samsung Galaxy, runs Android OS ver (you guessed it) 1.5.

(P.S. Rogers is the same company that charges data at 3 cents/kb. No, not kB. Look for it under "Hidden Disclaimer".)

Rogers NOT "Good to Go"

Maurice, the article is about UPDATING existing phones to Android 2.1, and while the new Google Phone will work on Rogers in Canada, you cannot update Rogers Android phones. In fact Rogers is explicitly blocking users from updating HTC Magic+ and Dream/LG Eve phones (the only Android phones available from Rogers). The company has also forced users who rooted their phones to downgrade to 1.5 if they want to keep data (under the guise of an "update" that also blocks root access). Buy an (obsolete) Android phone from Rogers on a 3 yr term and you get version 1.5 with NO upgrade path.

Where the Milestone 2.0 then?

Can the current Milestone from Moto handle Eclair? And how many Android updates can it take? Hope that the Milestone will get a version 2.0, to upgrade its RAM, CPU(s) and GPU(s).

:)

ok, I will wait for MeGoo

Reading all this drama about Android versions and a f..... u. new Teletubbies Windows Phone 7 OS it think it might be a good idea for me to stay away from both.

I will wait for MeGoo and the corresponding Nokia phone.

If that still is a fail I then .... I hardly dare to say it ... go for the new Apple iPhone even I planned to stay away from Apple.
