Android RC33 for the UK coming soon

Still on RC8 in the UK
Whilst US users of the T-Mobile G1 received the latest update to Android, the so called "RC33" release earlier this month, UK users have been somewhat left in the dark, still stuck on RC8.


RC33 brings a number of cool things to Android, notably voice search and Google Latitude. Note that this isn't the long awaited "Cupcake" branch of Android - it'll be a while (if ever) until we get that on a G1.

According to a comment on this blog post, someone called T-Mobile support and was told to expect the update "sometime around February 20th".

Let's hope they're not lying - I've been developing on Android SDK 1.1 without a hardware device to test it on!

Incidentally - if you want RC33 but don't want to wait, you can follow the instructions here to get it. Don't come crying to me if you brock your phone though... ;-)
