no idea why they would do this. I'm likely to spend $2500 in the next couple of years with them and just want to enjoy my phone as I see fit. Also saw this cute little pic earlier  |

| Anyone download Ice Cream Sandwich today?
I like it except you can't have separate toggles on your home screen. It's just one big toggle widg et for wifi, bluetooth, GPS, auto sync, and screen brightness. I really just want the wifi and Bluetooth so it doesn't take up so much space on my screen.

At least that is more convenient.
Everything does look better IMO. |

| Watched a demo of Jellybean. Looks like it has some cool features. Considering ICS is only on about 10% of droids now, jow many phones will it be on by the time the next update comes out? |

Word on the street is Freak ordered a GNexus. He's going to give the Android side of things a go at it. Knowing the guy, I think he'll feel right at home after he flashes a ROM or two and starts tinkering with things.

Wouldn't be out of line for them to release the next update by (or around) the new year. I'm in the camp that they should hold off on another update for awhile. The transition to ICS hasn't been exactly quick. We are just now seeing it pushed to a few devices.
Fortunately, the ICS to JB jump isn't as broad as 2.3 to ICS. It's important, though, since it could mean the end of "laggy" low end phones in the next couple years. They made a fairly fundamental change in the way the digitizer, OS, and hardware react now when you put a finger on the screen.
