Google Android 2.0, also known as Eclair, will be the next big leap forward for the fledgling OS. However, from what we can see of the next generation of the open source OS things are going to get a whole lot more exciting, including Microsoft Exchange support, full Facebook integration, a faster YouTube experience and even a completely re-worked Google Maps app. Find out more about Google Android 2.0 after the jump…
Google Android 2.0 will come with a host of new features and a vastly improved interface when it starts to roll out next year. How do we know? Well, it seem the guys over at BGR have gotten their hands on a full version of the Google Android 2.0 OS, as well as the blessing of Google, and started to play around with it.
The big changes include Google Maps in Android 2.0 offering Layers. This means you’ll be ableĀ carry out different searches from the same page, which could be traffic reports to checking out POI on a destination. There will also be a re-worked Facebook app, so you can stay connected to friends even when travelling around.

Then there are more routine updates in Google Android 2.0, such as support for Microsoft Exchange, so business users will find it easier to tap into corporate email. However, with Google Android 1.6, also known as Donut, only now starting to make its presence felt, we’re looking into the New Year before we’ll start to see these changes appear in the Google Android 2.0 update.
