Samsung Galaxy S update to Android 2.2 due in October?

Samsung may be preparing to begin rolling out Android 2.2 updates for its Galaxy S handsets some time in October. The company's Spanish Facebook page claims the Froyo update has finally been confirmed for a late October introduction, although it is unclear if the announcement is limited to customers in the local market.

A separate report, based on information provided by Samsung's UK division, suggests Android 2.2 will be arriving on Galaxy S handsets sometime later this month. The announcement was associated with handsets from "all networks."

Samsung has promised Android 2.2 firmware updates to be released soon for the range of Galaxy S devices. In the US market, the device is offered in four different variations for different carriers and hardware configurations.
