I was jus wonderin because I saw a bgr report and some said they thought it would get android 3.0
Yes, Gingerbread will be another 2.x update with its primary focus being improving the (G)UI and further stripping of the OS and more efficient coding to make it as lightweight and powerful as possible, leaving the task of defining what the phone is capable of to the user-end.Wait... didn't Engadget recently say that Gingerbread would most likely be a 2.x release instead of 3.0?
If it comes out Q4... yes. Since the epic was just released. And also its Samsung's flagship line so it should be properly supported
Ok... forget Gingerbread, will it get Honeycomb...?
Froyo and Gingerbread are supposedly the end of Android's OS fragmentation so I'm of the opinion that Honeycomb will carry on to any device capable of running Froyo or Gingerbread.Poll this, please! Yes, I do think so. The hardware should be more than capable, but I don't think it'll go beyond Gingerbread since that'll be so far in the future.

I am certainly hopeful for Gingerbread, beyond that I'm doubtful, by then Samsung will be working on the next big hardware release and updating the Galaxy line won't be a priority.
However I'm looking forward to Froyo soon.
See I noticed no real difference in real world tasks from the evo to the epic. Both seem to fly through whatever you throw at them and do it with great aplomb. I cant wait for froyo and see what it does for my phone (CMON video out!). The only thing that shows a difference is certain games and benchmarks. Honestly I rarely game on my phone so it really didnt matter to me. Heck had the evo come out with a slider phone I would be using that if it came out before the epic.
