These new updates and features include a new touch screen keypad, video recording and playback, direct video upload to all-time favorite YouTube, copy and paste in a quicker browser, in page search, enhanced friends’ status in Google Talk, accelerometer based applications, straight Picasa upload, quicker GPS, stereo Bluetooth support, and improvements in certain areas of general nature like email, browser, SMS, calendar etc.

This update is called the “cupcake” update, and it is being said that it will roll out from today. As far as UK users are concerned; there is still time to get their hands on these updates. T-Mobile is very much hopeful about the future of G1 Android by seeing the figures indicating sales of the phone in first six months in UK; 100,000 sales. Of sure, this is a big figure that signifies the charm and appeal of G1 amongst masses.

There are rumors regarding future of G1, too. They say that “Magic” and the “Samsung i7500” are going to make difference in G1’s sales; so will the upcoming rumored T-Mobile phone do. Also, it still doesn’t have any competition with iPhone as only during the first quarter of 2009, Apple sold 3.8 million iPhones globally. G1 still has to go long way to reach up to iPhone’s level.

    About damn time. I cannot wait for the new update, so we can still remain par with the iPhone. I read their update and they are really getting up with 3.0. I hope Cupcake delivers.
