    Damn.. did you see Froyo’s overall share in the market…
    WOW…!!
    Personally speaking…
    Ive used both… Froyo and Gingerbread… and ill have to say… for normal users Froyo is a BOON…. But with Gingerbread.. people like me can see heaven…
    I have a phone that has a CPU speed of 600 Mhz normal mode… With GB, i overclocked it to around 769 Mhz pretty easily, and the performance boost is immense…!!

    It is as if the phone has some how transformed into a mean machine… but as they say, with upgrades you also get a lot of bugs…. nothing is full proof so there are drawbacks too… but overall Froyo or Gingerbread… ANDROID is here to stay for a really loooong time….

    iOS, RIM, and also SYMBIAN… better watch out..!!

    P.S.: If you want ill make an article regarding the detailed overview if Froyo and Gingerbread…!!
    ;)
