We’ll see if our G1 has had the update pushed down to it yet, and let us know if your G1 gets it yet in the comments. While you’re waiting, you can also go vote for your favorite Android Community MVP so they can win an HTC Magic with Cupcake already installed on it. Oooh.

[Thanks to everyone who sent this in, and Engadget Mobile]

Now we’re down to the three top nominations. They are:

DrVeronica, Susan and JohnnyLicious. So here’s the deal, since all three had overwhelming support from the community, we’re having final vote for the top MVP of Android Community. All three of these members garnished some incredible support because of their efforts in the community, and they’re all fantastic contributors and members of AC, but we only have one phone to give away.

Head on over to the comment section in the forums and vote in the poll!

We have some facts and figures about Android:

If you can’t read the picture (really?) we have Android on 10 carriers in 12 countries, with 4,900 applications, and each user downloaded 40+ applications per device. It is #2 in the U.S. mobile web browsing stats, and there’s some more news coming.

New features include handwriting recognition, and we have what looks like the new Samsung device on stage. We’re going to bring you updates as the come, and also video!

Update: It seems that Google’s Android 2.0 “Donut” will also have Text-to-Speech functions as well as Universal search.

Update 2: Check out the video demo of the new features here.

I was out and about with the family all morning long and we had a great lunch outside as the weather was real nice and sunny. As we started to head back, my toddler son started to show some signs of fatigue. My wife and I were hoping that he would be able to calm we drove home but he started to fuss and a big tantrum was about erupt. I feared the worse since we still had at least another half hour to drive before we get home. That’s when I remembered that my G1 had YouTube! I quickly pull my phone out and did a search for train videos. I handed over the G1 to my son and he started to calm down. He was really happy and I was amazed how easily he picked up how to use the touch screen and navigate from videos to videos.

As a K-9 developer, I would love to go to Google IO to learn the Android best and latest tricks to then share them with the community in your favorite open-source Android email client.

Fritz269′s entry:

I was out at the beach a few weeks back and my girlfriend started to have an Asthma attack. Her being stubborn, she refused to go to the hospital so I had to pull out my G1 to get some info on how to treat her until we could get to a pharmacy for an inhaler. I found out that honey placed under the nose was a good home remedy so I raced to a local liquor store and bought a jar of honey which actually helped. Then I used Google maps to find the nearest pharmacy where we got her an inhaler. I credit it to helping me get through an emergency.

Peted20′s entry:

My most memorable Android experience has been seeing my own code run on my handset.

It was a small GPS app and it was pretty sweet to know the phone was grabbing location from a constellation of GPS satellites and that I could capture the location and do whatever I felt like with it– for example, displaying my location on top of any of the terabytes of satellite imagery provided by Google, anywhere in the world.

The combination of GPS enabled handsets, 3G data links, satellite imagery and geographical data is a pretty powerful combination and something I think we’ll see a lot of in the coming years. Android, of course, is very well positioned for this use.

My second most memorable experience was this past week as I traveled from Seattle to the Oregon Coast. My ADP1 was my lifeline while I was out! I was able to: listen to MP3s while I drove, track my trip (for later review in Google Earth), get driving directions, and browse online travel guides to figure out new places to check out. I even got a little Google Reader and Facebook in to stay connected. It was also pretty interesting to pull up Wikitude, point the camera in a direction, and see new places to check out.

I’d love to attend Google IO as I’m embarking creating on a new Android-based app. There are many Android and Google Maps API sessions which would give me a great start!

Congratulations again to the winners, and thank you to everyone who entered. I wish we could give each of you the chance to attend, but you should check back here on Android Community for updates as we’ll be bringing you the latest news from Google!
