T-Mobile G1 getting Cupcake update starting May 11

It’s been over four months since we first heard about the wonders of the Android cupcake development branch. Finally (after every developer and hacker on the planet has already released their ow version of android cupcake), T-Mobile U.S.A. is planning on releasing it to their customers. The Android 1.5 OTA software update will start on May 11. Similar to a new of T-Mobile’s past updates, there have already been scattered reports of G1 users getting the update pushed to their handsets already.

Personally, I have already installed four different Android 1.5 builds onto my G1. None of them have been official releases for my exact phone so there have been a few glitches along the way. But the advantaged of the Android 1.5 update have far outweighed the downsides. If you’ve been waiting for an on-screen keyboard, stereo bluetooth, and video recording/sharing, you’re in for a treat.

T-Mobile’s Android 1.5 update will most likely take 2-3 days to roll out to all G1 users.
