Android Froyo, Google T.V., Adobe and more at Google's I/O conference

Friday, May 21, 2010

Google is showing off the next version of Android right now - Android 2.2, aka Froyo. We're liveblogging it right now, but you can watch this post to get the key bullet points of the new version as we hear about them

Speed
App data backup
Improved Enterprise / Exchange Support
Push services - "Android Intent"
Tethering / Mobile Hotspot
Much faster browsing experience - V8 in browser
New functionality in browser- Camera, orientation, geolocation
Support for Adobe Flash and Adobe Air
Search the Android Marketplace directly from Quick Search
The ability to install applications on the SD card automatically
One-button update or automatic update for apps
The ability to purchase music from Android Marketplace
The ability to stream your own music from your desktop
Those are the big points, folks, and note one significant point that's not here: a release date or list of devices it will land on. Luckily, we have word from HTC on a few of their phones.
