Android 2.3.4 Update Gets Detailed
Earlier today, Google announced that it would be releasing Android 2.3.4 to the Nexus S and the Nexus One bringing video chatting via Google Talk to the former and bug fixes to the latter.
And while we pretty much know what to expect from the Nexus S’ new video chat feature, Nexus One owners were left in the dark as to what specific bug fixes would be coming their way in about two weeks.
Well, Google has come clean with the details about the update and it has posted them for Nexus owners to see. Here is what to expect with the upcoming Android 2.3.4 update.

Paid $600 in Jan 2010 for nexus one and feel a bit disappointed about keyboard, speaker and polyphonic sounds. Device feels cheap, although obviously it wasnt..
