Google G1 fan, Mark Hewitt, has recently updated his useful Hitchhiker's Guide to the G1 Google Phone hub and has some news on Google's Cupcake update. As many of you will know, the over-the-air update has already been made available in the US but UK users are still waiting. Mark has been in touch with the Google Press Office and been told that the update is due "very shortly" in the UK. Fingers crossed then. It will be worth the wait though with two notable improvements being:
- An onscreen keyboard - pretty essential now given that the forthcoming HTC Magic is keyboardless.
- Reduced battery drain which has been a problem from the beginning.
For more details on Cupcake and for more handy user tips for the Google G1, check out Mark's 4 part guide on hubpages.
