Android 4.1 Jelly Bean preview: First look

28 June 2012
Google used its I/O 2012 conference in San Francisco to unveil the latest release of Android. Carrying the version number 4.1, the new Android Jelly Bean is supposed to come as more of a polish to Ice Cream Sandwich, than a major game changer. Don’t think for a second though...

      This release is for the privileged few that have the Nexus and Galaxy phones. Samsung...please release Gingerbread for the Sidekick. That is all.

                        Um, how does this review look in JB? do the 'embedded' videos look ok? or do you have to go full screen to see them?

                        please say - I would like the real answer, not uninformed, fanboy moans... :)

                                  i hope more and more websites will support html-5 for media content, later on this year when jellybean starts rolling out with new nexus devices and with high end phones being upgraded to 4.1

Your statements are unfounded, you are simply trolling the forums. I have seen this same comment over another JellyBean/Nexus post. Are you mad at google? Lol!
