The sudden launch will certainly be a surprise for many people, especially those still waiting for a 2.2 Froyo update (or in Sony Ericsson XPERIA owner’s cases, waiting for an even older 2.1 Éclair update).
Still, it is not too hard to conceive the possibility that there will be an OS update launch. Google has already made it clear during the I/O conference that they had pretty good plan and idea about what the OS will be, and that as of the time of the conference, they had already started on the new system. In any case, it is only a few short days away until the eleventh –which means that we will all finally know the truth of this wide spreading rumor.
