Is this the first glimpse of Gingerbread?
When it comes to blurrycam shots, well, this is right up there with the best (erm, blurriest) of them. But what you're looking at, says Phandroid, is one of the first public glimpses of the Android Gingerbread build, on what looks to be a Nexus One. They've got a lengthy discussion of they say they've been told is coming in Gingerbread. The big points: A more refined UI, but don't look for any major changes just yet. Kinetic scrolling is improved (a much-needed improvement, at that), hardware acceleration, a new an improved YouTube app, SIP support in Google Voice, and other bells and whistles.
Another nugget that lines up with rumors we've heard is that while we may see an announcement and SDK soon, actual release of the code may be a ways off -- like sometime early next year. But that's not really all that shocking, as Froyo was announced in May, and the code wasn't released until late June. Toss in that all of this remains highly unofficial at this point, but we've all got our fingers crossed. [Phandroid]
