**Update: Now that we’ve had a few weeks to ponder over everything Android and have seen that AT&T is still completely silent on any Android support, how do you think the state of affairs concerning Android/AT&T are? Still feeling sad, neglected, and overall lost in life after a brief bit of happiness on news of a GSM Droid floating through the FCC only to find out it’s a Euro-model? Time to whip up that excitement again as another Motorola Sholes...
HTC Magic ROM upgrade brings Sense UI onboard.
HTC Magic owners lusting after the eye candy and graphical supremacy that is the Sense UI can now make use of an updated Magic ROM via HTC’s support site. Besides including the Sense UI, this updated ROM, version ” 3.03.715.4″, comes complete with Android 1.5 Cupcake. Not quite as exciting as 1.6 (Donut), though better than nothing at least. Talk of HTC Magic’s getting the Sense UI have been discussed before as has the lack of T-Mobile/Google...
Android 2.0 gets pictured [BGR]
All I can say is after looking at BGR’s picture walkthrough of Android 2.0, I am now even more eager to make the jump.

Early adopters (that means you G1 owners), or more importantly, “select G1′s” will get the 1.6 update pushed to them sometime today with the newer, more touchy feely brother (MyTouch) having to wait another 24hrs. or so. ...
Acer A1 the first Android phone we really want
Android has so far been released on what I would call “lower high end” hardware in that the hardware hasn’t exactly been very drool inducing. That is about to change with the Acer A1. If you didn’t know, the A1 will be the first Android handset to go north of 600 MHz as it packs a 768 MHz beast inside. Though processing power isn’t the only thing to talk about. Everything from the WVGA 3.5″ 800 x 400 screen to the fact it’ll...
