Samsung Galaxy S Gingerbread update coming March
It appears that Samsung has confirmed that its Samsung Galaxy S phone will be getting the Android 2.3 update come March 2011.
The news of the Gingerbread update, if correct, will mean that it's been 5 months since the handset's previous update to Froyo in November 2010; although don't expect a vanilla version of Android like the Google Nexus One or Nexus S, as Samsung covers the Galaxy S with its home-grown skin, TouchWiz, which some believe gives greater accessibility to the handset.
New features you can expect with the update include one-touch word selection with copy and paste, new keyboard, better battery management will mean longer battery life, whilst built-in VoiP and SIP support will be welcomed as services like Skype, or more likely Google Voice, can be integrated more easily into the phone’s interface.
