Android 2.2 - Froyo

It will be separate. Someone a few pages back posted it being in the Market. It wont show right now tho, you need to have 2.2 installed. And you could go to Adobe site on your phone and get it, after you have 2.2 installed.

I wouldn't say it's impossible not to get Flash at the same time. We will have to hear from N1 people to see what they are getting today. The install would probably reboot twice, once for the update and then once for the install.

Everything I've seen so far seems to indicate that it is included in the update. A quick google gives me this: Android 2.2 Froyo Unveiled ? Official Features List - Android 2.2, android 2.2 features, android 2.2 froyo, android 2.2 video, download android 2.2, google - Technically Personal!.

2.2 seems to be a bigger jump from 2.1 than 2.1 was from 2.0

One would think so, but Engadget concludes otherwise...

"...As with every prior release since 1.5, Android 2.2 is a collection of minor tweaks -- there's nothing in Froyo that screams "revolution" when taken alone. But perhaps more than any version before it, 2.2 could prove to be greater than the sum of its changes, simply because it directly addresses a fistful of annoyances that could've easily been keeping Android-powered hardware out of many would-be buyers' hands. In other words, Android 2.2 is going to be the most usable Android yet -- now, the onus is on manufacturers to deliver hardware to match, and if phones like the EVO 4G are any indication, they're likely up to the challenge."

Android 2.2 Froyo: everything you ever wanted to know -- Engadget
 
Well, I firmly disagree with Engadget. The ability to save apps to the SD card is a HUGE deal, especially with regards to game development. That alone is enough to certify this Yogurt release as a "big deal" (and that's just ONE of the new features). 2.1 was a very significant update but 2.2 is, as well.
 
I just got up at 11 and I was sitting here watching tv and checked engadget on my droid and saw that N1's have gotten froyo over night and it woke me right up! Let the custom roms begin! :D
 
this is Joke???

I'm a little skeptical of the whole thing. (2.2 roll-out)

I can't see them releasing this out to the masses so soon. The SDK was just released.

I'm sure by days end we will hear some legit explanation of the few updates that went out.

Right now, I wouldn't be so sure the roll-out is starting.

edit: plus it was already announced that the release was a few weeks out and now they begin rolling it out? No way....
