The coverflow screenshot is definetely the ipod toich, plus you can see the “ipod” on the status bar was hiden with a black stripe, but it wasn’t well hiden as you can see a white dot there on the left of the status. So fake! At least that screenshot.

Looking at the pics on spica, i do notice on the top right corner of the phone, something that looks like a front camera or what usually called a video call camera.

are we going to get that function soon with android?

Let’s get real now. There is no way that TMO will make a version 2 of something when the specs are better on the original. Also, those screen shots are from Tocco Ultra. WAKE UP PEOPLE!!!

From what I’ve read, no changes have been made to donut yet, and the only changes that have been planned so far deal with supporting smaller screen resolutions(ie QVGA) which would explain why these 2 phones won’t be released until 2.0 is out. I don’t think we have to worry about the standard android build looking like the Samsung Touch-Wiz UI.

As far as I know, the Donut branch is similar to the Cupcake branch of the source. Cupcake was a branch that was private for Google engineers until near its release. I saw both cupcake and donut in the git for several months, but they are kept pretty quiet.

Actually… now that I navigate through the source.android.com site, I can’t find the link anymore. But I did do a “repo sync” and found the branch still, so it does exist.

I could be wrong. But that last Android screenshot looks like WinMo on an Omnia or something.

Hi. I’m not from androidforums but from linuxphone.ru. So…

Mobile-review doesn’t say Spica will be Bigfoot. They say these phones are different.

However, I can confirm they say that Samsung Spica will have TouchWiz interface on Android 2.0.

Anyone else notice that we had rumors of the i7500 in November but the table on this page appears to say ’09.05 implying this month??? Also, if it is not out until November why are there now two hardware video demos of it? I think the i7500 is going to hit the market soon just not in the US. ugh!
