The Gingerbread man is coming for Google Nexus One and Nexus S



This is the Tweet that enlightened us :

"Gingerbread (Android 2.3.3) update now rolling out to Nexus S and Nexus One. Be patient, may take a few weeks for OTA to complete"

What can we deduce from the above mentioned sentence?
  1. It is the official ROM (cooked ROMs are already circulating over the internet (OTI)
  2. Android Version 2.3.3 Gingerbread
  3. Coming to Nexus S and Nexus One
  4. It will be delivered over the air (OTA)
  5. May take a few weeks
  6. Be patient guys :D
  7. A good way to increase the count to 7 isn't it ?
What's New in this Update?

  • Rewritable NFC tags
  • New API support for developers to fully utilize the near-field communication chip.
  • Various bugs and random reboots have been addressed and fixed.
  • WebM support. It’s a relatively new media file format designed specifically for the internet. What a WebM file consists of is VP8 video codec and Vorbis audio codec compressed audio streams.
  • For Nexus S users,  If you have your Facebook contacts synced, they’ll all get erased. Google has decided to take this step, as Facebook doesn’t really use the Android contacts API to store contacts on the handset, thus making them impossible to export. Google is against that and as a result the Nexus S and future “lead devices” won’t be able to sync Facebook contacts.
  • Facebook contact data will continue to appear within the Facebook app, if you have one.
