not that weird there are plenty of linux distributions (which is what android is at heart) that have some sort of alphabetic naming scheme, particularly ubuntu, gutsy gibbon, hardy heron, etc

Correct me if i'm wrong but there has not yet been an update to any GSM Hero to anything beyond cupcake either.

no, the problem isn't HTC itself directly anyway, its Sense so no it GSM hasn't been updated because HTC has to update the entire software suite

i agree, i talked to my sprint rep and he spoke to Samsung (figure this is valid because Sprint will probably update the Hero and Moment at the same time) the other day and they confirmed "end of 1st quarter" so march 31st most likely

Re: Google Buzz and 1.5

Out of curiosity, all you complaining the upgrade path is so slow and are interested in moving to other manufacturers and devices. What devices are you thinking of moving to? Ive had smart phones since day one and I have not seen a quicker upgrade path than what we are experiencing now - even if the update comes at the end of March.

Many devices and manufacturers have absolutely no upgrade path.

No other 1.5 device has received a 2.0+ upgrade yet. We will get ours before summer. Calm down, have a little patience!
