Flan is out, next iteration of Android to be called Froyo

According to an Engadget exclusive interview with Erick Tseng, Senior Product Manager for Android, the next iteration of Android will be codenamed Froyo. It will not be called Flan, as we reported back in July, and no release window or other details have been said regarding the next iteration. Froyo, short for frozen yogurt, fits in line with Google’s alphabetical dessert loving scheme and the web is already abuzz with the letter “G”. Ginger, gelatin, gelato, and ganache come to mind but since Google threw us a curve ball here, I would say that anything is possible. Please note that many have been referring to 2.1 as Flan, including us, which is an error as 2.1 is technically still Eclair according to Google.
