Although we haven’t seen any official confirmation of this, there’s a widely-circulated rumor that T-Mobile G1 phones are getting an Android OS update soon. That could mean G1 owners will be treated with Android 2.0, or the latest and greatest version, 2.1. That’s good news for early adopters whose T-Mo contracts were still running when Android 2.0 and the Verizon Droid hit the streets.
The bump to 2.0 (or 2.1?) is rumored to be an over-the-air update. It should bring speedier, snappier performance, along with a ton of new features. 2.0 was a pretty major overhaul of the Android OS, adding car mode, new navigation features, and Facebook and Gmail integration. There’s some speculation on message boards that Android 2.0 can’t actually fit on a G1 without using an SD card, but I wouldn’t be surprised if Google found a way to make it work. I’ve got my fingers crossed for you, G1 owners!
