Android 3.0 might already be in the wild
Potential evidence has been uncovered regarding Android 3.0 (codenamed Gingerbread). Although most of the Android world is still awaiting an update to version 2.2 of Google's mobile operating system, the folks over at Phandroid have discovered what looks to be a Nexus One running a previously unseen version of Android. The validity of the image comes into question due to the obnoxious concealment of the device, along with the fact that it could very well be just a clever Photoshop job.
Even more curiously however, is that GreeneComputing (as reported by Droid-Dog) has also reported seeing various ROMs of the 3.x variety in their stats for their Linpack benchmark software.
Android 2.2 (FroYo) took the Linpack lead for the most runs this last week. According to my analytics, Android 2.2 was used 43.1% of the time. Android 2.1-update1, the previous leader was used 39.8% of the time. So what was used for the rest of the 17% of the time? How about 158 other ROMs! That is a lot of variety to choose. Mixed in with the lot is some curious ROMs; Android 3.0, Android 3.0.1 and Android 3.2
