T-Mobile G1 update rolling out now

By James Kendrick | Tuesday, February 3, 2009 | 6:40 AM CT | 14 comments |

t-mobile-g1T-Mobile has let it slip that the next firmware update for the G1 Android phone will roll out starting on Feb. 5 but an employee says the updates have already started.  The updates on the G1 are over-the-air (OTA) and will be pushed to G1s over a two week period.  This update is not the long-rumored cupcake update but has some good improvements for the G1 that owners will want to grab.  The most significant feature added by the RC33 update will be Google Voice Search which is already a great tool for the iPhone so owners will want to make sure they update.
