Which Android products with Market don't have 1.6 yet?



At least some of the HTC phones with "Sense" UI, like the Verizon Droid Eris, are still shipping with Android 1.5.


Ah, the joys of unsupported third-party hacks :)


The Sprint HTC Hero which launched two months ago as well as T-Mobile's MyTouch both shipped with 1.5; the T-Mobile G1 can be upgraded to 1.5.


The T-Mobile G1 was updated to 1.6 a couple of months ago.

myTouches should be on 1.6 already. T-Mobile was pushing the update in October (November?).


Confirmed on my MyTouch (worst phone name evar - though very happy with the beast).

App works fantastic in practice in my tests, though choked on one case tonight. Had kids in car, drove by movie theater -- no showtimes/reader board visible outside (theater is in the mall).

Tried to get showtimes by 'reading' AMC theater logo on side of building ("daddy, why are you taking a picture of that building?"). No go. Google maps and gps to the rescue.
