Android Fork Brings Froyo To 12 Smartphones 193

jj110888 writes "CyanogenMod has just been updated to version 6.0, bringing Android Open Source Project 2.2 (Froyo) to several devices. This fork includes enchantments to many of the built-in apps, Ad-hoc network connectivity, OpenVPN support, Bluetooth HID, Incognito browsing, extensive control over audio and UI elements, and more found in the extensive CHANGELOG. The CyanogenMod team uses an instance of Google's gerrit tool for code review and patch submission, helping make this former backport of Android 1.6 to T-Mobile's G1 into thriving development for the G1/MyTouch/MyTouch 1.2, Droid, Nexus One, HTC Aria, HTC Desire, HTC Evo 4G (minus 4G and HDMI output), Droid Incredible, and MyTouch Slide. HTC Hero (including Droid Eris) are coming soon for 6.0, with Samsung Galaxy S devices expected to be supported in 6.1."

It's the opposite in most other countries. My friend grew up in Brazil and his family was fairly well off. They owned a few cars, all automatic. One day they looked outside to find their car missing. They found it a couple hundred feet down the road with it stuck in first gear. Most people there have never even heard of an automatic, and they ditched it because they didn't know how to drive it.

I'd hesitate to include Britain with continental Europe. The two are very different places.

Also, besides France and Italy (and Germany's censorship which will probably manifest itself in a filter soon), who else has filters? It's not the entirety of Western Europe - not Ireland, not Spain, not Belgium, not Switzerland, not Holland...
