Samsung and Verizon will not confirm we will receive 2.3. What I've read about Galaxy S getting upgraded in April involves Europe.

I think this (Gingerbread) will definitely happen for the other line of Galaxy S phones. They have been on 2.2 (officially) for some time now. ... sigh....

This is why I appreciate adranalyn/punkkaos so much. Who knows... punkkaos may release a good daily driver 2.3 rom for us!

Fascinate doesnt even have the official 2.2, doubt it will skip to 2.3. International galaxy s may get it, but fascinate will probably be one of the last to get it (as it is with 2.2).

Wasnt there another rumor before that fascinate will get it on the 30th of march? Unless verizon says so themselves, Im not going to believe this any time soon.

Unless Verizon ships it, I'm not even gonna believe them (I was told by some reps when I picked mine up that Froyo was coming in the coming weeks from what they were told... yeeeaaaahhhh....). I don't trust Verizon or Samsung...

Not at this point I care about their official Froyo, thanks to the Mesmerize. Hoepfully we'll get CM7 ported to our phones before our devs totally move on (instead of only continuing to work on this phone out of pity).

Official word from Samsung's Finnish site informs us that local owners of its Galaxy S smartphone will be receiving their Gingerbread fix around the middle of this month. Less direct, but still pretty reliable, confirmation of this comes from UK carrier Three, who promises the same OS version will be arriving to its users of the handset "in a couple of weeks." Considering an Android 2.3.2 build for the Galaxy S already leaked out way back in February, few should be surprised at the timing of this release, but prior experience still urges us to be wary when it comes to Samsung and its software update schedules.

This phone will end up getting gingerbread, but its stupid to lust over it since it will be the last of the GS phones to get it. Enjoy your phones for what it has now and forget about gingerbread until verizon decides to release it.
