The long awaited Android “cupcake” upgrade for the Android OS looks to be one step closer to release. An early-look version of the Android 1.5 SDK has been released to developers which includes a preview of soft keyboards, home screen widgets, live folders and speech recognition. This early version of the SDK also includes both Android 1.1 and Android 1.5, allowing developers to code for multiple OS versions within one SDK. The current release is only a preview version of course, with the final Android 1.5 SDK expected to be distributed at the end of the month. Exciting news, Android fans, though it would be slightly more exciting if we had more than one Android handset available right now…

    Becoming the leader in cell phone operating systems is just the start of it. Look for Android to be ported to netbooks soon, which could offer some serious competition to Microsoft.
