Android 2.2 Could Up Speed for Mobile Devices, Add Adobe Flash

“An Android enthusiast site has gotten the jump on Google with
the suggested release date of Android 2.2, codenamed “Froyo,” and
put the Google-backed mobile operating system through its paces.
What the site found is a very fast new operating system sporting a
version of Adobe Flash — marking Flash’s debut on the smartphone
OS.

“AndroidPolice.com believes Google (NASDAQ: GOOG) will push
Android 2.2 out to Nexus One customers in one week, on either May
19 or 20. Officially, Google has not given a release date for the
next version of the operating system.

“Google did not respond to requests for comment as of press
time.

“The site has also been putting Android 2.2 through its paces on
a Nexus One phone and was impressed with what it has found. “One of
our team members has been playing with a Nexus One running Froyo
for about a week now, getting more and more visibly excited every
day,” wrote Artem Russakovskii, the article’s author and the site’s
editor and founder.”
