The article doesn't say the most important thing, which of the two gets 2.2
1.6 is barebones, 2.1 is "slightly sluggish" even on a 1ghz snapdragon with 512meg of ram. In other words, Android was a harsh place before the arrival of 2.2
So, any phone not getting the 2.2 is not worth the money.
Dead simple.
