Ladies and Gentlemen, Boys and Girls.  All of your Android holiday wishes are coming true.

It has been confirmed that T-Mobile is releasing an Eclair update for the T-Mobile G1.  The update will be at least Android 2.0 but more likely Android 2.0.1 as both versions have already been prepared as OTA updates.  An anonymous source of ours has confirmed that both the Android 2.0 and the Android 2.0.1 are in the hands of some very fortunate people.  Nothing can be released just yet due to Non Disclosure reasons.

You heard it here, first, on AndroidSPIN.  Your No.1 source for Android news.

Happy Holidays to all.

Simon Walker
I was an IT consultant for 20 years and ran my own web design and development company for an additional 3 years. I have been involved with technology from birth. OK, that maybe an exaggeration, but it sure is a long time. I'm also an avid Home Theater geek and self appointed installer for friends and relatives. My first serious modding of Smart-Phones started with my T-Mobile WING and now Android devices. I'm also a bit of a photographer, although Android has kind of taken over my life and photography has taken a back seat.

    The G1 has got to be the best buy of all phones ever.
    I’ve never seen a phone get so many significant updates.
    It’s awesome!

    Thats awesome, does that mean that it will also include the MyTouch OTA roll out? Because of the G1 getting it?

    I would think it’s safe to assume that the G1 and MyTouch would both get this update.

And that’s not out of the realm of possibilty, as we’ve already seen Android 2.0 ported over to the G1, albeit in pretty raw form. No word on when the over-the-air update could come, or if it’ll be the newer 2.0.1 flavor. Stay tuned, folks. [AndroidSPIN] [...]

    This rumor would make more sense if it included the MyTouch…

    The G1 & MyTouch should be come the low cost Android phones for TMobile in January if the Nexus One rumors are correct…
