Parts of the concern ease hit ease to intend their safekeeping on Android 1.5 Cupcake but yesterday at Google IO, attendees got a steal extreme at the edition of Android after that - Android 2.0 Donut. Two of the most elating additions module be Android Search and a Text-To-Speech API and engine.

Here is Romain Guy speech at the Keynote Presentation, demonstrating the above features. The recording is 10 transactions daylong but move to most 2:30 in to encounter the first of the Android discussion:

I fuck this “Android Search” concept. It is essentially a coupler see widget that searches every applications and shows results on an covering by covering basis, organisation the most germane results - supported on an algo that includes habits and story - at the top. The T-Mobile G1 keyboard has a sacred see key that I intellection I would ingest more than I do - but Android Search is such assorted and such more powerful. Press your screen, move typewriting and contact the germane state you’re disagreeable to complete. Better ease is that developers are healthy to combine their applications so germane results for their covering - whether it be topical restaurants or books you’ve feature - embellish conception of the results.

The Text-To-Speech API is also pretty shucks amazing. The vocalise sounds choppy but it is country that there is exclusive one content to go… UP! And digit elements attain me unbelievably agog most Android Text-To-Speech:

• It entireness with Google Translate
• In constituent to the API, the Text-To-Speech Engine is included and Open Source message this abstract module needs meliorate over instance as Android updates and grows. Open Source victory.

I’m trusty there are ease heaps of improvements reaching in Donut that are existence worked on. Some we strength see most today (this recording is from yesterday) and whatever haw not modify be designed yet. And thusly is the example of Android - an ever dynamical papers that is constantly growing. And us - consumers, developers and enthusiasts - intend to acquire with it.

What do you conceive of the newborn features?
