Android looks delicious!
If you Blue Dots are anything like me, you are practically foaming at the mouth waiting for the latest updates from those magical folks at Google.

The newest update that may be coming to your phone is code named Ice Cream Sandwich. It brings lots of cool new features, a smoother interface and a uniform look to the Android Platform whether it’s a brand new or used cell phone!

So far it hasn’t proven itself to me yet, but it seems it has proven itself to some analysts who make a living off of cellphone business guesswork.
