The Engadget website has somehow managed to get their hands on some photographs of the new Nexus S mobile phone, we believe this will be running on the android operating system.

We know that there is a planned release of the Android 3.0 (gingerbread) hopefully before the end of the year. Apparently while some rumors have been saying that this new operating system will blow the socks off many people to be honest details have been very skeptical and difficult to come across on this.

But, today some details have emerged which come from Mobile-review.com’s Eldar Murtazin which are very interesting indeed.

Here’s a quick rundown of what we may expect

• Android 3.0 Gingerbread will be released in mid- October (around 15 -16th), 2010. First handsets shipping in November/December – for the Holiday Season.
• Minimum hardware requirements for Android 3.0 devices are: 1GHZ CPU, 512MB or RAM, displays from 3.5” and higher.  (We all, of course, heard that Android handsets with 2GHz CPU’s are coming)
• New 1280×760 resolution available for the devices with displays of 4” and higher. (Anyone thinking about Android tablets now? )
• Completely revamped user interface. If you want to get a feeling of what Android 3.0 Gingerbread UX is like, check out the Gallery  App on Nexus One. The same overall feel, light animated transitions,etc. Natively, through all the UI.
• Android’s split into 2 branches becomes official. 3.0 for top of the line/high end devices. Cheap, low-end mass market handsets will keep Android 2.1/2.2

Another interesting thing is that there 3G network is still in its infancy and they are still at the stage of growing and pushing this out for all of their users. There’s a lot of competition in the market today especially for a new operating system and competition from mobile phone manufacturers like Nokia, Sony Ericsson, Samsung and Blackberry to name a few is very strong.

T-Mobile are also up against some of the big carriers like AT&T and Verizon but congratulations must be given to them for their achievement.  It will be interesting to see over the next year where this will go with other cell phone manufacturers of thing go with and live as their operating system.
