Answer to the second and third question:
Google has codenamed Android 2.3 as Gingerbread. Earlier versions were codenamed Donut (v1.6), Eclair (v2.1), Froyo (v2.2). Then they launched Android 3.0, codenamed Honeycomb, exclusively for tablets..
The latest OS being offered by Google is Android 4.0, codenamed IceCream Sandwich (ICS)..
There is no major difference in v2.3 and 2.3.x.. Some minute changes in the OS so as to reduce the number of bugs.. it is similar to the update process of an anti virus in your PC..
And if you are planning to buy Android phones, please wait for a few months as the new OS will be shipped with variety of new phones..
