Guest_star, 04 Mar 2012I'm not defending Apple here they do make other manufacture... morethat is nonsense - Apple DO NOT design most of their parts, no matter how much they give you the impression that they do.

                Does anyone know the hardware requirements for JB yet? Will devices running GB or ICS stock ROM's be upgradable or will the hardware requiremnts be too high for current phones? I doubt that would be the case, as it would not make much commercial sense, but it would be good to know for sure. For example can any Samsung or HTC devices getting an ICS upgrade, generally, reasonably expect a JB upgrade?

                      I'm guessing that android 6.0 might be named after the following treats. :
                      Kit-kat
                      Krispy kreme
                      Kool-aid

                      But most likely it will be either of these two:

                      Kiwi
                      Kisses

                        No need for knicker twisting. Android 5.0 is a long time away. ICS was talked about by the time Honeycomb was launched.

                          well,, all apple fans out there must know one thing,,i.e when samsung makes a phone, most of its parts are made by the company itself, unlike apple which buys processors(, etc) from samsung(and others) and then try to sue samsung(and others) also,,, this is very funny and also cheap,, and pls do note, there is no perfect device in this world, liking a product is purely a personal opinion, so i am not complainin,, but letting u guys know.

                            I've got a Garmin-Asus A10 for about a year, it's about US$190. Though it only sticks on android 2.1(that makes it could easily be rooted by z4root, may not be a drawback), I'm satisfied with it. There're 512 MB rom and 4GB of internal storage inside, it actually doesn't matter without the App2SD. It could even play the Eternity Warriors(of course not installed from android market). The stock browser itself also has a function to select text. I don't have any professional testing devices like Gsmarena does, but as an owner of iphone 4, samsung galaxy mini, gio, ace, gs1, gs2, se xperia ray, lumia 800, I could tell this small piece's performance isn't bad really. Hope Asus could release the new phone soon.

                                      Best way to get latest OS on Android is to buy a new phone. You guys should know that by now.
