Rumors about this started swirling
last week, but Sprint and Samsung have just made it official that the
Epic 4G and
Galaxy Tab will both be getting firmware updates this week that add
Sprint ID, the carrier's Android skin / theme platform first introduced on the
Transform,
Optimus S, and
Zio last year. For the Epic, the update will also mark the return of Android 2.2 -- Froyo had already made a brief official appearance for Epic owners several weeks back, but
bug woes led to a quick pull and a temporary return to Eclair. Looks like the updates start rolling out today, with all current owners having access to the updates by this Thursday, the 24th. Follow the break for the full press release.
