T-Mobile has began pushing Android 2.3.3 (Gingerbread) out to a group of myTouch 4G users today after T-Mobile put up the information on their support site. The update will make its way to all T-Mobile myTouch 4G users within the next ‘coming weeks’, and will continue through the end of the year. Anyone else think that this is a HUGE timeline to roll out an update?
Among the many improvements any Android user who has moved to a Gingerbread build will appreciate, here are some of the specific features;
- 2010 Exchange compatibility

Very Nice.
