With September right around the corner, Samsung is (reportedly) getting close to rolling out the Android 2.2 update. This version is called FroYo and supports many speed enhancements and updates. One big one is including Flash 10.1, so now you can visit all those sites that won’t work on the iPhone or iPad.
There are no official dates that have been announced, but Samsung has had a few releases of FroYo available for the international Galaxy-S on their website. These were mostly beta tests and bug fix releases, and wouldn’t work on any of the branded phones (T-Mobile’s Vibrant, AT&T’s Captivate, etc.) but once the platform is solid, you can be sure that each of these vendors will be hard pushed to release their update over the network.
I for one, am very stoked. Check out this site or this site for more information.
Speaking of the iPad, Samsung is getting very close to releasing their own pad based on the Galaxy-S hardware. It’s a 7 inch tablet that will roll out with Android 2.2, and it looks very nice.


Please take a moment and look back through a few posts from the Dev team here at Zoom Creates. I think that you will come to find that we seem to love Google. It’s quite true. This also includes Google’s mobile operating system, Android.

In a phenomenon bringing both the craft brewing and geek world together (once again), Portland, Oregon’s own
Google, Intel and Sony are collaborating on a new platform currently called “Google TV”. This would likely lead to the development of set-top boxes and integrated hardware in future consumer screens to utilize the platform. Content focus would be to merge social applications, digital television, and local digital files. Additionally, the current plan is to base the platform on the Android operating system, allowing developers to quickly produce another set of open source applications for users of Google TV.
I’d like to take a few minutes and talk about one thing that we all use each and every day. The Internet. Whether or not you log on every day, you are surrounded by it. Even if you don’t sit down at your computer or pull out your 3G phone to log on, the Internet has changed the way our world communicates. It’s both a blessing and a curse (although, in my opinion, it’s a much larger blessing). Because the Internet is the first medium to bring you media content to your house without any platform to control it, you have to control it. It’s a double edged sword.
