Android 2.3 Shown in the Google Video

Courtesy of Google Hong Kong, an official-looking video presentation Google's upcoming Android 2.3 Gingerbread have been outed.

The video,even though unfortunately in Cantonese,shows off a voice-search feature on the upcoming OS on what seems to get a Nexus One. In addition to this we acquire a better appear at how the in-development OS is going to look when it's finally outed, with several minor changes being seen in the interface and status bar. The video could be found in the link at the bottom.

Thus far we've seen very slight of Gingerbread, with only a small teaser from Google's CEO Eric Schmidt last month at the Web 2.0 summit who had what's presumed to be the Google Nexus S with Android 2.3 Gingerbread already on the device. Unfortunately all he had time to showcase was the CRT TV power off function. At the same event,Eric Schmidt said 2.3 is coming out "in the next few weeks". We can be looking at a Christmas release here folks.

The Android Market Now Includes Similar Tab

After we got a peek on Android 2.3 yesterday in one of the Google Hong Kong’s executive videos,we observed there was a third tab when the video protester appeared at a single market item. We did not know what it said, at first, because it was in Cantonese. A bit later, Engadget confirmed it said “Related” and we all jumped for joy.
Well, a pair of our readers reported afterward on that day that they’d begun considering similar changes to their Android 2.2 phones, except for the tab says “Similar” in English. I appeared on my Android 2.1 phones and the changes weren’t mirrored there.

As it’s not the biggest change in the word, It’s an adding that makes sense and reaffirms our perception that Google’s received a lot more in store for the Android market to make it simple on both users and developers. If you have an Android 2.2 device, be certain to check and see if you’ve been sent the hot bit.
