Speaking to ViewSonic about an upcoming handset Pocket-lint had it confirmed to them that there would be a new version of Android launching in April, version 2.4.
I say ‘new version’, but it seems to be something less than that, really only bringing one new feature to the table: support for multi-core apps to devices with a single processor. According to Pocket-lint the launch of version 2.4 was brought forward owing to Honeycomb (Android 3.0), which already supports multi-core chipsets.
Version 2.4 will in fact still be known as Gingerbread, not Ice Cream, according to Pocket-lint so it looks like that still remains the next major Android upgrade, presumably launching some time later this year, perhaps as early as the summer.
The question for Sony Ericsson fans of course is whether Sony Ericsson will update the likes of the Xperia arc to this new version should it indeed launch in April. It could very well be the first test of their promise to better support their Android handsets.
