In case you haven’t heard, the Nexus One is getting an over the air update this week that adds the following:
- Goggles becomes part of the Google app package. Goggles is a visual search, augmented reality app.
- Google Maps is getting suggestions and a dedicated night mode, which is useful for navigation.
- 3G issues that some owners have experienced will be addressed
And, most importantly:
- MULTI-TOUCH!!!!!! Yes, multi-touch is coming to the Nexus One. Multi-touch was one of “The Uglies” in my updated review of the Nexus One.
I’m thoroughly excited that Google has finally decided to put muti-touch into Android for US users. I don’t care what the reasons were that it wasn’t in there before, I’m just thrilled to know that it’s coming.
I haven’t received my update yet, but it is supposed to be hear before the end of the week. It feels like Christmas all over again, except I know what we’ll be in the package when I open it, and frankly, I can’t wait!
