Android Any word on Honeycomb for Edge?

opengirl · 03-01-2011, 08:15 PM

I know an update in UI is coming, I'm wondering what version it will be... Honeycomb? would that work for the Pocket Edge? I'm a newb, I admit, but I do think perhaps the newest android UI would probably be best, no?

It'll be Android 2.2 ("Froyo") and hopefully we'll see it in April. Honeycomb is Android 3.0 and indications are the current models won't support it due to hardware requirements.

Oh, I was thinking that there is a word, and that word is steatopygic which is a good word to describe the effect of trying to load Honeycomb onto an EdGE. In fact, it's a good word in general, provided one uses it sparingly and without malice.

I would say that most software becomes steatopygic as it goes into later and later versions with the addition of new features. Eventually, the acquired steatopygia requires faster hardware to run effectively. Honeycomb will surely be no exception.
