In December last, Google told owners of the company’s former flagship mobile device, the Nexus One, that they would receive an Android 2.3 (Gingerbread) update within a couple of weeks.

It’s now the middle of February 2011, and there’s no 2.3 update to be seen.

However, this might soon be changing. The whispers around the Mobile World Congress, apparently from those within Google itself, are that the Android team is going to be rolling out the Gingerbread OTA (over the air update) for the Nexus One soon – either the end of this week or the beginning of next week.

Here’s hoping!
