By Michael Heller As I wrote before, I find it hard to believe that Google ever expected or planned for the Nexus One to be a commercial success. The Nexus One was the pinnacle of a phone designed and distributed for the tech elite, early adopters and other geeks. No one else would be willing to brave buying a phone sight unseen from a web store. No one else would be likely to do the research needed to understand the benefits of the stock Android experience. No one else would be likely to look past the fairly utilitarian UI after seeing the far prettier options like the Sense UI from HTC. Now, Google is distributing the Nexus S to the masses via Best Buy and Carphone Warehouse, but, as far as I see, it’s still a geek-only device.

In the world of Android, things can move pretty fast. Case in point: Just weeks ago, Google took the wraps off of Android Gingerbread, the latest and greatest version of its mobile operating system. Aside from the newly launched Samsung Nexus S device, no phone even has the software yet -- heck, plenty of users are still waiting for the Android 2.2 upgrade -- but that's not stopping people from looking even further ahead.

Good news for you folks with the non-U.S. version of the HTC Wildfire: Your Froyo update is on the way. OK, so's Christmas. But, really, it's coming. HTC said so on its Facebook page this morning: "We know many of you have been asking for information about an update for your Wildfire. Well, we have good news! Android 2.2 (aka Froyo) on Wildfire is scheduled to begin rolling out this week in Europe, reaching all areas of the world by February. Thanks for your patience as these updates roll out; we think you’ll enjoy the final product."

If you live in Canada and happen to own the Samsung Galaxy S Vibrant smartphone, hopefully you didn?t already update it to Android 2.2 because many people are reporting issues with upgrading. In fact, the issues are so prevalent that Samsung has temporarily pulled all future Android 2.2 updates to the Canadian Vibrant until the issue can be further examined.

The Huawei Ideos does everything right to create a cheap phone with plenty of smarts. It's not going to take on the big, beautiful Samsung Galaxy S , but it's got an even newer version of Android and should only cost about £100 on pay as you go. We'll take ten! The Ideos isn't in shops yet, and since Huawei isn't a well-known brand here, it will probably get renamed by the network that brings it to the UK. It should still be called the Ideos, though, so look for it on pay as you go for between £99 and £129. All the Android Huawei says it worked closely with Google to make the Ideos, which is evident in the Google logo that graces the back of the phone. This phone is pure Android 2.2 Froyo , the latest version of Google's operating system. That means you have all the latest features, except one -- there's no Flash on the Ideos. It just doesn't have the processing power to support Flash, sadly. But it does have all the rest of the goodies t...
