Default Donuts anyone?

According to this article, Google is moving forward full steam ahead with their next update, Donut. Nice to know Google isn't sitting back basking in their cupcake glory! The article predicts an August launch of Donuts... we'll see.

I'm wondering a couple of things.

First, anyone eagerly awaiting Donut, or do Donut's not hit the spot as much as Cupcakes did? There sure seemed to be a LOT of chatter with everyone eagerly awaiting Cupcake, but little interest or talk about Donuts.

Second, how does HTC's use of Sense UI affect users, when a new Android update is released? Will HTC have to wait for the Donut update, then spend months implementing the new features into their customized, cooked OS? Would they get it in advance of the official release, and therefore be able to release THEIR update to Sense UI at around the same time as the Android update?

How quickly has HTC updated their Windoz phones? Anyone know?

Just curious....

well from what* remember from the HTC Hero launch events and videos, the CEO / Chief Innovative officer says that HTC Sense is build "around" cupcake 1.5 so therefore it would be pretty easy implement the new "features" of 2.0 (Donut) to their new UI

just my 2 cents :]]
