Last last night (early this morning) there was some confusion about our post indicating that Android 2.2, Froyo, had started to roll out. Some thought we had Photoshopped the pictures (I wish I was that good at Photoshop), others though we were just using the developer build, and others thought we got some sort of special press copy. But rest easy people, I have in my inbox a confirmation from Google that says the following: “The roll out to Nexus One devices has begun!“
Naturally, I asked the company what the deal was with the roll out, since I was as surprised as anyone to see 2.2 ready to install on my device when I picked it up last night. After all, Google itself had just tweeted out that the new OS would be available on the Nexus One in the “next few weeks.” But that looks to be a solid under-promise, over-deliver — very nice, Google.
Actually, like many other Google roll-outs, this will be a staggered one. So it may be a couple of weeks before everyone gets it (Google didn’t say). And yes, it does look like a lot of members of the press are getting it first (maybe because we got the device at the Nexus One launch event prior to its launch, who knows). But again, it is starting to roll out to everyone.

Why hello there... you. Over at the HowardForums, a certain "wnrussell" has uploaded a picture of what looks to be a Getting Started manual for a Verizon-bound Motorola Droid that we can't recall ever seeing before. There's unfortunately no other information provided at the moment, except maybe a hint from the filename: Shadow. Is this the same 4.3-inch phone we've been seeing rumored for some time now? At any rate, we gotta say, this is a pretty attractive device -- and if that's a new hue for Motoblur, we're all for it. Now how about pulling out a secret slide-out keyboard to make our lives complete...

In order to combat ratings, Mike He in tonight's CTS 'Calling for Love' will broadcast he and Chen Zhi Kai suction kiss, and Jerry Yan in CTV and GTV, 'Down with Love' will propose; while Blue Lan in TTV, Sanlih, 'Tou Xin Da Sheng PS Nan' will wet kiss Sonia Sui in the rain, both of them will kiss passionately and intensely for one hour. Sonia Sui said that when kissing, the water keep running down, she said: 'Because, there are lots of water, so the rain shed from the side of the mouth.'
Ask if this is the first time kissing a male, Mike He said: 'I have been suppressing the idea of kicking him! Really uncomfortable. Ah Sa who was looking at them by the side, called out in Taiwanese 'Tongue la' stirring them to kiss using the tongue, and Mike He gave her a contemptuous look.

Sometimes there are advantages to staying up really late at night. I had just laid down in my bed to try and get some sleep before an early flight to New York tomorrow when I remembered I hadn’t charged my Nexus One. I reached over to my bedside table to grab it, and I see an alert letting me know a system update is available. Having just read numerous reports that Android 2.2 would be coming to the device in the “next few weeks” I figured this couldn’t be the new OS codenamed “Froyo.” But it was.
Yes, apparently Google is starting to roll out the Android 2.2 Froyo update to Nexus One devices right now. I just tried the EVO 4G (the newest Android phone which Google gave out at Google I/O this week) but 2.2 isn’t available for that device yet. I guess being the “Google Phone” has its advantages. Nexus One owners, if you’re up, check for an update right now.

Like we need any more proof, right? Even so, the more confirmation the better we say, and one of our Apple guys has sent us in some shots of the field test firmware for the new iPhone HD (or whatever it is), and we’ve got them right here for you. They are pretty self explanatory, and there is one more after the break!

With the big performances happening at the 2010 Dream Concert, Big Bang’s G-Dragon also had a pretty big performance himself. Back in March, G-Dragon released a special version of his hit single Heartbreaker featuring Flo-Rida and last month we reported that G-Dragon would appear as a special guest at Flo-Rida’s concert in Korea. Well that day has finally arrived and G-Dragon performed Heartbreaker with Flo-Rida!
