                                With the Galaxy S and Nexus S being very similar in terms of hardware the Galaxy S has the tools to run ICS but that doesn't mean there will be an official update from Samsung. But there are plenty of other options, XDA already has a working (ish) rom and there are many other smart arse developers out there.
                                Now that the Nexus S has an official update I doubt it will be long before someone puts out a stable ICS rom for the Galaxy S, it can't need that much changing.
