Google has been hard at employment with their free mobile Operating System Android. The troupe gave us some dessert versions of the Android OS like Cupcake, Donut and Eclair — which many of you out there know as version 2.0 on the DROID and the Nexus One.

We also know that the next edition of the free mobile OS will be Froyo, which apparently combines the words Frozen Yogurt. And now for those with a sweet tooth, we get tidings from Senior Staff Software Engineer at Google Brian Swetland of the next version of the Android OS which turns out to be “Gingerbread”.

A few days ago piece blogging to clarify some confusion on “the Android Kernel” Swetland said: “We’ve been doing this roughly every other heart and soul release since about 2.6.14. This week we’re finalizing our relocation to 2.6.32 for the Android “Froyo” release, and we’ll likely be on .33 or .34 for “Gingerbread”. So as you can see the G codename is out of the cup of tea, tin you guess which volition be the name of the H edition of Android? My bet is on Halva, go on and let us know what you think.
