Google Android Security Patch Update (Cool & Painless)

Let’s not focus on the patch but the way that Google pushes out the patch, which is similar to the desktop OS. An early tester witnesses:

“The handset I’m testing gave me a message Saturday afternoon: "A system update is available," and a choice to update now or later. When I clicked the button to begin the update, it downloaded new software, which took a few minutes, then installed it, then resumed working with no hitches.”

I think other mobile handset OS can certainly learn a lesson  from the “newbie” Google.

FYI: The patch fixes the highly publicized security problem with Android’s Web browser and makes a few other minor changes, according to a Google spokesman quoted in IT World on Friday.  [Via News.com]
