Gingerbread man arrives at Google

Last time Google got a shipment of an oversized dessert, it was only about a week until the release of Froyo. Today Google received a giant Gingerbread man to join the collection of other desserts. It’s unclear if that means we’re only days away from the Gingerbread release, but it surely means that we’re close.

In related news, it appears the new version of Anrdoid OS won’t be 3.0, or even 2.5 — but 2.3. I hope this is a case of under promising and over delivering. Unless this release is incredible (which I hope it is), I am very interested in getting my hands on a Windows 7 device. As a developer, the .NET platform and Silverlight is far more appealing than anything else on the market.

Watch the gingerbread man being delivered.

Good day to confirm this comment I would appreciate T h e b e s t o f Z D N e t d e l i v e r e d your website very nice to everyone Yes, Oracle is the only one with shared-disk architecture, but that is there advantage. It means you can add or remove nodes and the database lives on. In a shared nothing architecture, if you lose a node, you lose the system. I'm sure Oracle appreciates EMC highlighting their advantage.I also desire to signal in your RSS feeds. Thank you as soon as once again and maintain up the great operate Awesome post! Thank you very much || thanks for nice content this is really benefit to me.

I am neither American nor Canadian, and I did not understand a word of what you said. Less jargon and more plain language please.
