With Android 2.2 expected to be launched today at Google IO 2010, what better time to be looking beyond that to Google’s subsequent refresh of the smartphone OS.  According to the new WebM streaming video project FAQ, Android “Gingerbread” is due in Q4 2010.

There’s no suggestion of how significant a release this might be – some sites are suggesting it’s Android 3.0, though of course it could equally be Android 2.3 – and aside from WebM support we don’t yet know what “Gingerbread” will actually bring.  Still, it’s something to look forward to as we pace the Google IO floor in anticipation of Android 2.2′s arrival.
