Android 2.2 (Froyo) is rolling out! Sort of…

We’ve seen a lot of posts recently declaring that Android 2.2 is rolling out to Nexus One users, but I think we’ve jumped the gun.

A few days ago, Techcrunch posted that 2.2 was rolling out.  However, hours later, virtually no one else had received the update.  Google later confirmed that the rollout was in progress, but now some other details have emerged.

As many had begun to expect, the initial rollout was for a small test group only.  They’re still working out the final bugs before it goes out to a wider audience.  According to Justin Mattson, “We expect a final build to be available for OTA updates shortly, stay tuned!’

“Shortly” could mean a lot of things, but I’d expect we’ll see the official rollout begin later this week.  I certainly hope we do, as I’m dying to get some Froyo on my Nexus!
