G1 & myTouch 3G Get a Speed Boost
I never get tired of talking about the awesome stuff that Eugene has his hands in. G1 and myTouch 3G owners can now make their devices go over the previous top speed of 528 MHz. In the pic you can see that Eugene now has the processor passing up 600 MHz like yesterday’s news. According to him, the processor can run stable at 628 MHz. Leave it to Eugene to do what “they” said couldn’t be done before. Now he’s shooting for 800 MHz, but unsure about the stability. Possibly more later …
Thanks Eugene!
Update: New pic added, 780 MHz seems to be the max this CPU can handle on battery power. Good work Eugene.
Might We Suggest…

Their contribution to slower OS updates notwithstanding, a lot of us would feel a lot better about OEM’s custom UIs if they could just be turned off if a user prefers to use stock Android. Well, at least for one of their Galaxy S variants, Samsung has made this possible. On Sprint’s newly released Epic [...]

In terms of Android hardware, one thing we haven’t seen much of is trackballs. With most companies opting for touch-only or optical trackpads, trackballs are few and far between.
