Well,
here I am, still plunking along with 4.4.4 on my Note 4 and not really feeling all that left out.

Opened up news.google.com and saw a tidbit on the new version of Android, which is going to be released in tandem with the Solar Equinox. Fitting I suppose, Oh you say? :)

The Note 4 will never see 'O', and I'm not all that inclined to fork over a huge chunk of cash to buy a new Pixel just so I can play with 'O'....

Maybe I can find a nice place to just fiddle with the new Pixel...

anyone out there seen any of the new 'O' yet?

:p

The Note 8 is slated to come out with Android 7.1.1, and I might imagine that Android O - being an incremental update - will be 7.2. So if we get the Note 8 in September on Verizon, I would expect it will get updated to Android O about the same time that the Pixel gets Android Q or R...

Wow, that is a horrible thing to hear... we lost Dad in January and that was tough. If I lost the Darling Bride, I wouldn't know what to do. It's good to see you getting back into the swing of things, though - I'm sure she wouldn't expect you to collapse into a permanent state of mourning. If you feel like ranting or anything, I'm a PM away...

I'm doing fairly well, plunking along enjoyably with a Note 4 on 4.4.4 that someone decided to kick out the door :)
