T-Mobile Germany has posted on its G1 web page that a software upgrade will be coming in May for users of the device on its network.

As far as a similar offering for all of those hungry U.S. G1 owners waiting for a cupcake of their own, we still have no idea of a date when it will happen, but with the apparent May release in Germany, the U.S. upgrade shouldn’t be too far away.
