Now as for 2.3..this is where people don't seem to understand...ANDROID IS OPEN SOURCE!
Open source cycles work like this:
Alpha version is released..then nightlys update it..then it goes through Beta, RC1, RC2 and GA..
YOU WILL NEVER SEE GINGERBREAD ON A CONSUMER PHONE UNTIL IT HITS GA!!!
The one that was released on Nexus S is ALPHA quality software and it will receive more and more updates until it reaches GA...
So all the people need to calm down and actually understand the process..not go why arent we getting it just cause its out...Froyo for example, the first device was updated MONTHS after it came out on the Nexus One...even though they were very similar to the N1...

so what you're saying is that the nexus s was launched with an ALPHA quality OS? I dunno, that doesn't make sense to me but then again i'm not a programmer. I know the OS gets patched frequently but doesn't alpha denote buggy unfinished software? It had to be at least RC.
