When is/was Android's 3rd birthday? - Off-topic

Was thinking about android now being out for a while and wondering when i can celebrate its birthday?

Late for the party, it was on November
http://www.androidguys.com/2010/11/05/happy-3rd-birthday-android/

I'd say the launch of the G1 (October 22 2008) is probably the most appropriate date to celebrate Android's birthday

Any update on froyo from b&n?

The rumor was end of January. Has anyone heard a new timeframe?
sent from my NC
Im not sure where everyone is getting the January Time line from, I remember Originally seeing the time frame as being set at "near the end of Q1" which would mean late March or early April. I don't recall any official source saying January.
Granted this is still not official, but the nice lady at the nook kiosk in B&N told me June when I asked her. She also told me it was capable of playing 450p video but not 780P haha.

If you search Engaget for "Nook Color" you will find an article saying the 2.2 update w/ B&N market was due out in January. This story ran mid December and was also reported by numerous other tech related sites. I started a thread a few days ago asking the same question but got no solid answers on the time frame for release.
And if you do a little more searching, you'll find out the original article has been thoroughly debunked and everybody else "monkey-posted" from the original incorrect source.
Q1 2011 is all B&N has ever indicated.
Searching this forum for "froyo" would have turned up this thread from less than a week ago.

well... its not that great, but at my school today, me and some friends put a sign on a step saying "broken step, please step over".
the fact that the step was made out of concrete and quite obviously not broken made it hell funny to watch as people jumped the metre or so long gap over the step XD
April Fools day is on the 2nd in the UK
EDIT: Anyone fall for that?
We have the fools day in México on Dec 28

Hahaha Epic
Hmmm... I was in hiding this year thanks to the epic prank I pulled off last year...
So, a friend of mine was getting married on the 2nd of April (being Friday and all) and so I got him (bridegroom) drunk on 31st March. I pretended to drink too much and passed out earlier than my friends. With another of my prankster buddy, we subsequently spiked every bottle that we didn't drink with the local equivalent of 4loko eXtreme edition. Now, we got partying up to about 6am on 1st April and by then, most of them are out, but the two of us are pretty much alright.
So we then changed the dates on everyone's watches, handphones and whatever nots, and even got the bride's family and the wedding planners into the prank. The wedding reception was planned to be in the morning at 9am, so I got the planners to wake the guys up at 8.30. Needless to say, the groom panicked and everybody got into the car. In the ensuing confusion, I made sure that everybody was wearing mismatched suits and ties.
When they arrived at the bride's place to pick her up (Malaysian tradition, because we go to the church together), the bride's whole family laughed and shouted April's Fool!
I suppose I was still not forgiven for the prank. The bride seems to have enjoyed it but the groom was out for revenge since then. Of course, I drank so much on the bachelors party that I puked (punishment for the prank), and they nearly let me drown in my own vomit.
So that's why 2011 was a quiet year for me... I'm not sure I would survive this time around...

No. A quick Google search suggests 'whom' as being the better choice. Up to the OP though.

Susan G Koman Race For The Cure

I just wanted to post a quick thread in regards to the yearly Susan G Komen Race For The Cure, which I assume most of you know is a yearly run/walk to raise money for Breast Cancer research/awareness/etc.
My wife does the race every year, started doing it two years ago, and this year I decided I wanted to do it with her. She makes ribbons, bakes pink cupcakes and raises donations at church each year. I decided to lend a hand and see if I could surprise her and raise a little extra money aside from the $150 she raised this year at church.
If you're interested in donating, you can visit our official Race For The Cure page. You can see from the page, it is an official page hosted by the foundation and all donations go directly do the cause. It does not go into my personal account or anything of the sort.
Any and all donations are greatly appreciated and go to a great cause.
Thanks,
-Jamie
