Definition of "weeks"
I guess Google's statement back in early December that the NexusOne would be getting the Gingerbread update in the "next few weeks" means sometime in "spring" now? To the average human, saying in the next few weeks would usually mean the upcoming 3-4 weeks. But in corporate marketing-speak, it means 14+ weeks, just like saying that a product will be available in "June" means June 30, or "Spring" means June 21 when Spring ends.
