Google Confirms Froyo Launch: “The roll out to Nexus One devices has begun!”

Last last night (early this morning) there was some confusion about our post indicating that Android 2.2, Froyo, had started to roll out . Some thought we had Photoshopped the pictures (I wish I was that good at Photoshop), others though we were just using the developer build, and others thought we got some sort of special press copy. But rest easy people, I have in my inbox a confirmation from Google that says the following: " The roll out to Nexus One devices has begun! " Naturally, I asked the company what the deal was with the roll out, since I was as surprised as anyone to see 2.2 ready to install on my device when I picked it up last night. After all, Google itself had just tweeted out that the new OS would be available on the Nexus One in the " next few weeks. " But that looks to be a solid under-promise, over-deliver -- very nice, Google.
