According to an online dashboard Google provides to developers, nearly 60 percent of all Google Android devices that recently accessed the Android Market are running Android Froyo  or Android  Eclair. It took nearly nine months since Android 2.0 was introduced, but more than half of those frequenting the Android Market have the most recent and polished versions of Google’s mobile platform.

55.5 percent of devices are running Eclair , and Froyo makes an appearance with a little sliver of 3.3 percent. While many consumers purchase a phone based on a hot new ad campaign and may not care about nor understand differences between the different Android versions, the fragmentation problem becomes evident when comparing different devices.
