Back in October, HTC confirmed that it would provide an update to Google Android 2.0 (codename Eclair) for the HTC Hero. Sprint has now confirmed that it will offer this update to its HTC Hero users. It will also offer a similar update for its Samsung Moment users. The announcement came via Twitter:
Happy to announce Android 2.0 is coming to Sprint’s Hero & Moment. Date TBD, but roughly 1H 2010.
Samsung’s update might be available a bit sooner as the Moment is running the basic Android 1.5 OS. HTC may need a bit more time to update its HTC Sense user interface. But at least Sprint users know that they are getting the update!
