Android device owners probably really excited to hear that Android Chief Any Rubin has spoken out regarding to Android updates.
Andy Rubin's statements
...Our product cycle is now, basically twice a year, and it will probably end up being once a year when things start settling down, because a platform that's moving - it's hard for developers to keep up. I want developers to basically leverage the innovation. I don't want developers to have to predict the innovation.
..We're at about 4 billion cell phones. About 1.4 billion Internet connected PCs - that includes desktop and laptops and everything else. Like 1.2 billion automobiles. Some 800 million TVs. And it's like, "OK, let's target the top four." Let's do everything we can to get the big ones. Remember, our business is volume, because it's an advertising business and we want to delight a lot of people. And how do you delight a lot of people? You get in the products that they use every day.
This is actually comparable to the iPhone updates, which's also once a year, but what's good about Android is that, since it's open source, the Handset Manufacturers are free to push out new phones that has the latest and great Android updates. Doesn't have to be locked down like the iPhones.
