The Android 2.3.3 Gingerbread update for HTC's Incredible S is already rolling out over-the-air to users in Italy, according to reports currently bubbling forth onto the Internet. So far there's been no indication that the update's being pushed to phones outside of Italy, and the Incredible S demo units we saw at HTC's UK Roadshow last weekend were all still running Android 2.2.1.
Still, the Incredible S was the last European HTC phone to launch with Froyo, so it makes sense that it'd be the first to see an official update to Gingerbread. If these reports are accurate, a wider European release could be imminent, so let us know in the comments if you've had the Gingerbread update pushed to your Incredible S. [Engadget]
