An Android Developer is planning on compiling a fresh snapshot of “Cupcake,” the Android open-source development branch, for a video walkthrough every Sunday.
He just posted his first run-through, and new since we last checked in are desktop folders and a couple other tweaks.
The home screen folders are kind of cool, although at this early stage all they offer is a folder view of your contacts (all or starred). On display is also, of course, the soft keyboard, as well as a few UI brushups.
