The information about Gingerbread comes from a web page mentioned yesterday at Google I/O where the following was found…

“When will other Google products support WebM and VP8?

“WebM support in Android is expected in the Gingerbread release (currently planned for Q4, 2010). We expect many other Google products to adopt WebM and VP8 as they prioritize it with their other product requirements. Keep an eye on the WebM blog for announcements”

No official images have been created for the new Android character, therefore we grabbed an entertaining one from Engadget.
