Android 2.0 officially announced
By: t-marco October 27th, 2009
A while ago, Google announced the new Android 1.6 , now, the new Version 2.0 is officially announced. The new Android 2.0 “Eclair” contains two very important sections: SDK support and a comprehensive list of changes in the latest version. Here are the major changes us lay folk are going to care about:
- Support for multiple Google and Exchange accounts
- Third-party “sync adapters” allow apps to tie in to the phone’s sync services
- Quick contact menus for fast access to specific key pieces of contact information
- Unified email inbox (yes!)
- SMS and MMS search
- Text message auto-delete after a user-defined thread size is reached
- Significantly improved camera controls with white balance, macro, effects, and more
- Improved keyboard layout, dictionary, and algorithm based on multi-touch support
- Double-tap zoom in browser, support for HTML5
- Bluetooth 2.1 support with addition of OPP and PBAP profiles
- “Better” graphics hardware acceleration

I love android and with all the improvements ten times more. My favorite thing about it is how much music I can listen too and I would like to know if they plan on adding an equalizer for the music apps, I think it would make my music even more enjoyable.
