Android 2.2 sera lancé sur le HTC Desire ce week-end

HTC vient d'annoncer que la mise à jour vers Android 2.2 "Froyo" commencera ce week-end pour les plus chanceux possesseurs d'un HTC Desire en Europe. Au menu des nouveautés, un nouveau mode vidéo HD avec une résolution de 720p, une synchronisation avec iTunes pour transférer sa musique. Cette mise à jour se fera comme prévu en OTA (Over The AIr) donc sans-fil, HTC préconise de faire la mise à jour à partir d'un point d'accès Wifi car celle-ci serait particulièrement lourde.

Voici le communiqué de HTC :
"The Android 2.2 (FroYo) update for HTC Desire will start rolling out across Europe this weekend. As well as including the complete set of Android 2.2 features, the update will contain a few special additions of our own through the latest iteration of HTC Sense. The update will provide 720p video capture, HTC's App Share widget, as well as our enhanced HTC Caller ID, and improved multi-language keyboard. Also, through the update, HTC Sync will allow HTC Desire users to sync their music with iTunes.

HTC Desire users will be notified that the over-the-air update is available to download when their phone automatically checks for software updates. The update won't delete any of the phone's content. However, due to the size of the update, we would advise using a WiFi connection to download it wherever possible to avoid additional data charges.

This update will initially roll out to unlocked HTC Desire handsets. Operator specific versions of the update are undergoing testing and we expect to make them available in several weeks' time."
