Is it 'early 2011' already?

Back in November we brought you the exclusive news that PopCap was set to make its Android debut with a one-two punch of Plants vs Zombies and Peggle.

The time-scale provided at the time was “early 2011.” Well, we’re now living in “early 2011,” and right on cue we've stumbled upon some shots of the games running on Android hardware.

Twitter user Greenspeak (listed as PopCap's director of editorial and Social Media, Jeff Green) has taken a couple of photos of the two hit games running on an Android device. He also offers the following sage commentary: “OMG! I'm playing Peggle on an Android phone! Wowee!”

Neither snap tells us anything about the games that we couldn’t already have guessed, but they do suggest that they’re both near as damn-it ready to roll. We’re speculating now, but it could merely be a matter of handset compatibility testing or just picking the right moment to release them.

Our suggestion for the latter: now. Now, now, now.
