The next update to
Android OS will be Android Kitkat (Android 4.4). After the launch of Android
4.3, it was said that Android 5.0 Key Lime Pie would follow. However, the latest
announcement says that Google entered into a deal with Nestlé, the makers of
Kitkat, and is coming out with the Android Kitkat.
Earlier
Android versions were named after desserts such as Cupcake, Donut, Eclair,
Froyo,Gingerbread, Honeycomb, Ice Cream Sandwich, and Jelly Bean. "As
everybody finds it difficult to stay away from chocolate we decided to name the
next version of Android after one of our favorite chocolate treats,
Kitkat"said Google on its Android Kitkat page.
As part of this deal, Nestle will promote the software by selling 50 million Android-branded KitKat bars
in 19 countries, where purchasers have the chance to win a Google Nexus 7 tablet or Google play gift cards. This deal does not include exchange of money.
