Android 2.3 has been announced by Google, but that doesn’t mean you’ll be getting it on your current handset tomorrow. These things take time with manufacturers and operators having to decide whether they want to support the new version of the operating system.

Manufacturers like Samsung, HTC, and LG all having to wade through the new features released by Google and determine whether or not they want to bring those new features to older handsets, or just focus on bringing them to new handsets.

Even if they do say the big "Yes", the operators then get to have their say, suggesting that if you’ve got an older Android smartphone you could be in for a wait. How long a wait is what we aim to answer here.

As we find out about Android 2.3 updates we will add those details below.
