I guess my question is, what were A and B?
A?
B?
Cupcake
Donut
Eclair
FROzenYOgurt
Gingerbread
H?

If there's not a definite answer that's cool too. I was just kinda curious.
 
There was no nickname. The T-Mobile G1 was launched with Android version 1.1 which definitely had a long way to go. I still remember the anticipation of Cupcake. Finally there was an on screen keyboard! Anyway, Cupcake was the first to be named after deserts. You have the rest of the list already. :)
 
Alright. and actuslly, I feel stupid for not thinking of Alpha and Beta. Thanks guys. I was just kinda wondering.
 
I read somewhere that it was Applesauce and Biscotti for A and B, but that article was wasn't officially sourced as per coming from Google itself. Either way, I did a spreadsheet (no surprise there, for those that know me) of the Google OS's since its creation.

I also added my take on future OS names (I was right about Gingerbread and Ice Cream but was wrong on Honeycomb (who the hell eats honeycomb for a desert). :eek:

Anyway the spreadsheet is here. I'll be interested to see what others come up with for future names.
