It would appear that Verizon’s Samsung Galaxy Nexus has been updated with Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich, Android 4.1, which means that we very well could be close to an official announcement from Big Red. Again, for the millionth time, we expect the Galaxy Nexus to launch on either December 8th or December 11th, although as we know, it could end up being an entirely different day.
MyDroidWorld has posted the evidence and it’s very possible that this will be the version of software that comes with the Verizon Galaxy Nexus out of the box.
If you recall, there were whispers about Verizon working on some bugs that needed working on in order to get this update out so let’s hope that this is the fix that the device needed for the green light.

Samsung Galaxy Note Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich (Port In Progress)
Samsung Galaxy Note is an Android smartphone and tablet computer that was introduced in October 2011. It has attracted attention because of its size, between that of conventional smartphones and tablets, and because of its inbuilt stylus. The Android latest OS,Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich brings a significant upgrade to the core functions of Android, and comes with a totally revamped user interface. Samsung has been fond of installing its own TouchWiz interface on many of its Android devices, so it will be interesting to see what it plans to do with the new Ice Cream Sandwich operating system.
The Samsung Galaxy Note and Galaxy S2will be the first two devices to receive the upgrade. However, other devices will soon follow. Other ICS-upgradable Galaxy devices include Galaxy S II LTE, Galaxy R, Galaxy Tab 10.1, Galaxy Tab 8.9, Galaxy Tab 7.7 and Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus.
The Samsung Galaxy S 2 and Galaxy Note is among the batch of high-end devices that have a promised upgrade to the newest version of Android (ICS) from the OEM. From previous post, We know that early build of of Android 4.0 ICS ROM for Galaxy S2 has been leaked and available for download. So, How about Samsung Galaxy Note?
So far, Android 4.0 ICS custom ROM still no available for download. But don’t too worry about it, The Xda dev member, Maui, is now trying to port the whole thing, Android 4.0 to our beloved Galaxy Note. Maui, said that,
“As of today I was able to get it to boot into the GUI, but there’s still a lot to do. As this is part of Teamhacksung now: don’t even think to ask about ETAs. But here’s a little proof ”

India invites Taiwan PC makers to bid for Aakash tablet PC project
The India government plans to launch its second-generation Aakash tablet PCs, and is soliciting Taiwan-based PC makers to participate in the bidding, according to Sandeep Yadav, the convener of the project.
Aided by Taiwan makers' manufacturing capability, it will be possible to lower the selling price of Aakash tablet PCs to US$35, stated Yadav, who visited Taiwan recently.
International bidding for the new Aakash tablet PC project was originally planned for December but might be delayed to January 2012, according to industry sources.
Shipments of the current Aakash models have reached 8,000 units for trial use by students, and the India government aims to ship 200 million units of new Aakash tablets in the next few years, said Yadav, noting that the new Askash will be unveiled in January or February 2012 with a BOM of about US$50.
The first-generation of Aakash tablets are manufactured by UK-based DataWind with 10-20% of needed components supplied by Taiwan makers, Yadav said.

Samsung Galaxy Nexus Written Review by Taylor
Through all of the hundreds of Android phones that have released in the past year, the Galaxy Nexus is easily one of the most highly anticipated and notable that we at PhoneDog have had a chance to review. It's big, slim and stylish, and it comes packed with some of the best specifications we've seen in a handset to date. Officially, you can only purchase it through Verizon in the United States, but through other resellers, you can purchase an unsubsidized, unlocked GSM version that is compatible with both AT&T and T-Mobile networks.
Is this the phone to buy? Should you wait until T-Mobile or AT&T officially offer this phone (if they ever do) and use your upgrade to get it? I've spent several weeks carrying the Galaxy Nexus and digging deep into the innards of Android 4.0 and must admit that I'm thoroughly impressed. They both have their faults, but the Nexus one fantastic phone and the software is wonderful.

Samsung, You’re Doing It Wrong With Android 4.0
The No. 2 bestselling Samsung smartphone in history won’t officially see an upgrade to Android 4.0, leaving owners to decide among buying a newer phone, sticking with Android 2.3, or hacking on a custom build of Google’s latest mobile operating system. The reason Samsung won’t be offering such an upgrade? According to Samsung Tomorrow by way of the Verge, Samsung’s own customized TouchWiz user interface is the answer, which sounds more like a lame excuse than a valid explanation.
Samsung’s Galaxy Tab—a 7-in. slate I’ve been using daily for more than a year now—is also on the “won’t see Android 4.0″ list, says the Samsung Tomorrow blog. I can understand we’re looking at a smartphone and a tablet that made their debut in 2010, and there’s a limited shelf life for future updates on mobile devices. What I don’t understand, nor accept, is that the issue is Samsung’s user interface software. Even worse, I think Samsung is shooting itself in the foot. Here’s why.
You have to treat current customers well. On the one hand, I can see Samsung’s stance if it chooses not to bring Ice Cream Sandwich (ICS) to these older devices. From a financial standpoint, those handsets and tablets are already sold, and Samsung has earned all the income it’s going to from the sale of such devices. To bring Android 4.0 to the Galaxy S and Galaxy Tab, the company would have to invest time, effort, and money to deliver the software. It has no financial incentive to do so. But customers don’t care about that and could decide to buy a competing product if they feel slighted.
Software add-ons should never stop product advances. Some people like TouchWiz, and some don’t. The same could be said for HTC’s Sense. Both are user interface add-ons atop Google Android, and neither should be the primary cause of stopping an Android update. HTC once fell into this same trap with Gingerbread on its Desire handset and eventually compromised by removing some custom apps to make room for the update.
This isn’t a technical issue, it’s a bad decision. My first thought about this situation was that perhaps the Galaxy S and Galaxy Tab didn’t have the horsepower to run Android 4.0. Yet the Nexus S, made by Samsung, will get the ICS software, and it has very similar specifications to the Galaxy S in terms of memory, storage capacity, and processor. And I’m willing to bet the Android enthusiast community will have a custom build of Android 4.0 for both devices, if it doesn’t already. How sad is it that external developers can make this happen, when Samsung can’t?
Will most people who own a Samsung Galaxy S or Galaxy Tab be in an uproar over this? Probably not, as they’ll likely never know about Samsung’s decision, nor will they be thinking about Android 4.0 for devices that are 18 months old. But the decision sets a bad precedent and suggests that Samsung is more concerned with selling newer hardware than supporting existing customers and their current devices.
My suggestion would be a compromise of sorts: Offer a stock version of Android 4.0 for these devices with the customer understanding and accepting the fact that the TouchWiz interface will no longer be available after the upgrade. Unless there’s a real technical reason for the lack of an Android 4.0 upgrade—something Samsung should make clear—this might be the best answer. It wouldn’t cost nearly as much for Samsung to develop and test, while consumers thinking Samsung has let them down might be more accepting of the situation.

Verizon Galaxy Nexus on sale now for $300
The Verizon Galaxy Nexus, Google’s third Nexus smartphone and the first to include 4G LTE connectivity, has finally gone up for sale, priced at $299.99 with a new, two-year agreement. Officially announced yesterday, the Samsung-made handset includes a 4.65-inch Super AMOLED HD 720p display, 5-megapixel camera with 1080p HD video recording, and runs Ice Cream Sandwich, Google’s latest version of Android.
As we found in our Ice Cream Sandwich review, the new upgrade makes a significant difference to the usability of Android. Several of the features introduced in Honeycomb, Google’s tablet-centric version of the platform, have been pulled across and integrated into a phone-scale UI, though ICS will also start showing up in tablets themselves come early 2012.
For now, though, the Galaxy Nexus is the only official way to get hold of ICS, and in the US that means heading down to Verizon and checking out their LTE version. Off-contract pricing is $649.99. Let us know in the comments if you’re planning on picking one up.
For more on the Galaxy Nexus, check out the full SlashGear review of the HSPA+ model; we’ll have full coverage of the new Verizon LTE version very soon!

Kindle Fire tablet to get software updates
When the Kindle Fire was first unveiled by Jeff Bezos earlier this year, many analysts said it be the first tablet to present a real challenge to Apple’s iPad. However, now it seems some customers are dissatisfied with the device, according to Hayley Tsukayama:
The Kindle Fire is reportedly on track for a major software update in the next couple of weeks, and apparently not a moment too soon. According to a report from the New York Times, Amazon has been fielding complaints from disgruntled buyers. Even with a promised update, the complaints from some of the device’s most vocal users may not be easily fixed, because they involve hardware as well. Here are the top five complaints from users giving the tablet a one-star rating on its own Amazon page.

Verizon Wireless Makes $299 New Norm With Samsung Galaxy Nexus
NEW YORK (Dow Jones)--Verizon Wireless is expanding its slate of expensive smartphones priced at nearly $300 each with a two-year contract, betting that customers will be attracted by the carrier's reputation for network quality and its high-speed, mobile-broadband network.
The latest addition is the hotly anticipated Galaxy Nexus from Samsung Electronics Co. (005930.SE, SSNHY). The carrier will start selling the device this month for $299.99 with a two-year contract, according to people familiar with the matter. That follows the introduction of HTC Corp.'s (2498.TW, HTCXF) Rezound and Motorola Mobility Holdings Inc.'s (MMI) Droid Razr, both priced at a penny under $300 with a two-year contract.
The costly devices are helping Verizon carve out a niche for itself at the top of the market, as carriers have slashed smartphone devices down to being free on the low end. Rivals AT&T Inc. (T) and Sprint Nextel Corp. (S) offer several devices online at no cost, such as the iPhone 3GS and Samsung Conquer 4G.
"It used to be that $199 was the top of the heap, the most you were going to pay," said Charles Golvin, a Forrester Research analyst. "Verizon clearly believes that with their 4G network coverage and reputation they can appeal to a segment that will pay a little more for the latest and greatest."
Representatives for Verizon Wireless and Samsung declined to comment.
Forcing the customer to pay a higher price upfront means Verizon Wireless is paying a lower subsidy, which is the difference in price that Verizon Wireless pays manufacturers from what consumers pay for the phone when they accept a contract.
For the Rezound and Droid Razr, Verizon Wireless's subsidy is $350 per device, based on the full listed price for the handsets. In contrast, the iPhone 4S carries a $450 subsidy, like AT&T's Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket 4G phone. And Sprint subsidizes the HTC Evo 3D to the tune of $500 in a current Web promotion.
The subsidy amount is based on prices listed on the carriers' websites; actual amounts may vary based on bulk purchases.
The strategy, though, is risky as carriers are battling over an ever-smaller piece of available market share, with wireless connections now outpacing the number of Americans. By offering a higher subsidy, carriers hope they can entice existing customers to upgrade from older smartphones and agree to a multi-year contract.
The Galaxy Nexus--jointly developed by Samsung and Google Inc. (GOOG)--has been hotly anticipated since it was announced in October. It uses Google's Ice Cream Sandwich Android platform, which can run on both tablet computers and smartphones, and is enabled to make payments by waving the device in front of a receiver at a store checkout.
The device will be important for Samsung as well, as it seeks to take HTC's crown as the top smartphone seller in the U.S. Samsung shipped 4.9 million smartphones in the third quarter, 800,000 fewer than HTC, according to research firm Canalys.
Like other nearly $300 devices, the Nexus works off the zippier 4G service known as LTE that Verizon is rolling out to a broad swath of the U.S. With LTE's download speeds, customers may be more enticed by smartphones that pack in more features, such as bigger screens and faster processors, Golvin said.
Verizon's LTE will cover at least 200 million Americans by year end, compared with 70 million for AT&T. Sprint is in the early stages of erecting its own 4G LTE network, though it sells devices today using the 4G WiMax network from Clearwire Corp. (CLWR).
Shares of Verizon Communications Inc. (VZ)--which co-owns Verizon Wireless with Vodafone Group PLC (VOD.LN, VOD, VODPF)--closed up 20 cents, or 0.5%, at $38.05, on Monday.

Ainovo Novo 7 is a dirt-cheap Ice Cream Sandwich tablet
What does your hundred bucks-plus get you? Unfortunately, Ainovo isn’t generous with the details. The Novo 7 ships with a decent 1GHz MIPS processor paired with a Vivante GC860 GPU, 512MB RAM, and 4GB of internal storage (expandable via microSD), Wi-Fi support, front and rear cameras, and the ability to play back full 1080P video. Ainovo estimates that the Novo 7′s battery can yield 7 to 8 hours of cord-free use, and it also ships with Spider-Man: Total Mayhem. The webpage doesn’t note the resolution of the Novo 7′s 7-inch capacitive display, but it’s likely putting out 800×480 pixels.
In fact, the Novo 7 looks an awful lot like this N7 Asteroid tablet over at Amazon, which ships with Android 3.2. If the form factors are a match, you can expect your Novo 7 to weigh in at about 12.5 ounces and measure around a half inch thick. It might not be the belle of the ball, but what do you expect for this kind of money?
If you’re a stickler for quality, you’re probably better off picking up a Kindle Fire for $199, rooting it, and waiting for someone in the dev community to roll an Ice Cream Sandwich port.

Samsung Galaxy Tab 8.9 Review
AT&T and Samsung have brought forth a tablet that adds to their set of sleek Android-based slates, this one the first to work with the carrier’s 4G LTE network. Inside you’ll find the rather powerful 1.5Ghz Qualcomm MSM8660 dual-core processor, Samsung’s custom user interface TouchWiz UX made specifically for tablets, and either 16 or 32GB or internal storage. You can take 3 megapixel photos and 720p videos with the back-facing camera, slightly less impressive media with the front-facing 2 megapixel camera. As this tablet is thin, so is it speedy, and as there are now more than four different models of tablet running Android from Samsung on the market today, surely they’ve gotten the formula correct enough to warrant such an array by now – wouldn’t you say?
Like its predecessors the Galaxy Tab 10.1 and the Galaxy Tab 7.7, the Galaxy Tab 8.9 is monumentally thin, and just as it was when we first laid eyes and hands on the pre-production build back at CTIA spring 2011, this tablet is a winner when it comes to industrial design. It’s simply lovely in its form, feeling like Samsung wanted to knock the tablet game out of the park with a simple set of matte black plastic along the back and silver plastic around the edge, with the entirety of the front being a tough layer of glass and a 1/2-inch border of black under the glass around the 8.9-inch display. This display is a PLS TFT capacitive touchscreen at 800 x 1280 pixel resolution and the whole device sizes in at 230.9 x 157.8 x 8.6 mm.
The display is no AMOLED, to be sure, but it is relatively bright and will suffice for your everyday indoor activities. This tablet is in a class with the iPad and the top-tier Androids when it comes to overall quality, and you’ll know good and well where your $479.99 (with a free phone) went when you’ve purchased it. This tablet is the ideal size for those of you wishing for a tablet that’s both compact but not so small to fit in your pocket, and certainly light and thin enough to keep in a purse. You’ll want to think about purchasing a case for the tablet if you’re carrying it around in your daily satchel, especially since you don’t want the screen to get all nicked up by keys and coins.

Asus Eee Pad Transformer Prime: The Rolls-Royce of Android tablets
Asus' Eee Pad Transformer Prime is set to shake up the world of mobile computing. The device -- expected to launch in the U.S. sometime during the week of December 19, according to Asus -- marks the first time quad-core technology has made its way into a touch-based tablet. But raw processing power isn't the only thing that puts this tablet in a league of its own.
The Transformer Prime manages to pull off the rare feat of combining power and style: It's sleek and sexy, yet also jam-packed with robust functionality. And it's armed with a secret weapon: Asus' optional keyboard dock, a slim attachment that instantly turns the tablet into a full-fledged laptop computer. The tablet itself costs $499 for a 32GB model and $599 for a 64GB model; the dock is sold separately for $149.
On paper, this thing has it all. So how does it perform in the real world? I spent several days putting it to the test to find out.

Android 4.0 ported to Google Nexus One, Samsung Galaxy S II, other phones
It will likely be a few months before Samsung, HTC, Motorola and other handset makers release official software updates with Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich for existing phones. But independent developers have been grabbing the Android 4.0 source code and modifying it to run on older phones — even phones that Google had said were “too old” to run Android 4.0.
The Google Nexus One was released a little under two years ago, and for a while it was Google’s flagship phone for developers and customers alike. It was first in line to get Android 2.3 Gingerbread and most minor software updates — but Google has decided not to release Android 4.0 for the phone at all, instead focusing on the newer Samsung Galaxy Nexus and Nexus S smartphones.
But xda-developers forum member has already started working on a custom ROM for the Nexus One which brings Ice Cream Sandwich to the phone. The software is still rough around the edges, with 3G, GPS, and even the home button not working properly yet. But it’s a start.

Android Hits 200 Million Activations
Google shared some interesting statistics about its Android platform during the Google Music press conference held in Los Angeles on Wednesday. More than 200 million Android smartphones and other devices have been activated around the world. That's up from 100 million six months ago. That's an incredible amount of growth for a platform that didn't exist three years ago.
Android's growth has come at the expense of entrenched platforms, such as RIM's BlackBerry and Nokia's Symbian operating systems. Their presence in the market has shrunk since Android (and the iPhone) arrived.

Ice Cream Sandwich coming to 11 Sony Ericsson Androids
Android Ice Cream Sandwich is coming to 11 Sony Ericsson Xperia smartphones released in 2011.
While this is without a doubt good news for Xperia owners, Sony Ericsson hasn't said just when its Xperia handsets will get the latest version of Google's mobile operating system. Many hardware makers such as HTC and Motorola have said Ice Cream Sandwich will hit their handsets early next year sometime.
"There have been a few questions here on the blog and in our support forums regarding our upgrade plans beyond Gingerbread," wrote Martina Johansson, a Sony Ericsson spokeswoman, on the company's product blog Tuesday. "We can today confirm that we plan to upgrade the entire 2011 Xperia portfolio to the next version of Android known as Android 4.0 or Ice Cream Sandwich.
"We are working on merging our current Xperia experience with the new features in Android 4.0. More detailed information regarding this upgrade, timing and global availability will be communicated in due course here on the blog."
While Sony Ericsson does make many phones, most running Android wear the Xperia brand.
The 11 handsets set for Ice Cream Sandwich upgrades are the "2011 Xperia portfolio," consisting of the Xperia Play (which features a slide-out gaming controller), the Xperia Arc and Arc S, Xperia Neo and Neo V, the Xperia Mini and Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, Xperia Active, Xperia Ray and the non-Xperia-branded Live with Walkman.
Ice Cream Sandwich, which Google's Android team designed to work on both tablets and smartphones, is set to make its phone debut on the Samsung-built Galaxy Nexus, which is expected to hit Verizon Wireless at some point before the end of the year.

Android Market reaches 500,000 app milestone
Not just today, but back in September, as the record states, the Android Market reached its 500,000 app submissions mark, while just 315,000 apps sit out for sale today. The month of September 2011 is said by market research firm research2guidance to both be the home of that 500,000 app submissions market and a new record for per-month applications in the Android Market. This compares to what the Apple iTunes (iOS) App Store currently has for app submissions, 600,000, with approximately 456,000 apps in that market today.

រលក WI-FI អាចលាតសន្ធឹងបាន ១០០គ.ម.
Super Wi-Fi is inching closer to reality, and now the IEEE, the standards organization responsible for all things Wi-Fi, has published the IEEE 802.22standard.
This new wireless networking standard promises speeds up to 22Mbps to devices as far as 100-kilometers (roughly 62-miles) away from the nearest transmitter. This new band of Wi-Fi on steroids comes through the patch of "white space" frequencies that were previously used to analog television broadcasts.
There’s no word on when and which regions of the United States will be the first to get in on this super Wi-Fi. Houston is currently the only access point for a white space Wi-Fi, which comes courtesy of Rice University researchers. Super Wi-Fi has been slow in coming since the FCC originally approved it back in September 2010.

ទូរស័ព្ទ Android 3.x ដែលប្រើភាសាខ្មែរបាន មានលក់នៅលើទីផ្សារបណ្ដើរៗ ហើយ
Acer Iconia Tab A100 ប្រើ Android 3.2 មានតម្លៃ 300$ នៅសហរដ្ឋអាមេរិក។
$300 Acer Iconia Tab A100 Android 3.2 tablet hits the U.S. in August
The Acer Iconia Tab A100 stirred a lot of interest when the 7-inch, Android Honeycomb slate was first announced. Some of that initial excitement has waned, due in no small part to repeated delays — which Acer has pinned on Honeycomb compatibility issues. Now it finally looks as though there’s light at the end of the tunnel: the A100 will arrive on U.S. retail shelves next month and it should be priced at around $300.
Pre-order pages have already started popping up around the web, but prices appear to be a bit out of line at the moment. Excalibur PC is asking $329, while Negri Electronics lists the A100 at $390. Expansys has a pre-order button up as well, but they have yet to post a price.
So what will you hard-earned cash get you with the Iconia Tab A100? The 7-incher features a 1024×600 pixel display and sports Android Honeycomb (believed to be 3.2), a dual-core Nvidia Tegra 2 processor at 1GHz, 512MB RAM, 8GB of internal storage, SDHC expansion with support for up to 32GB, 802.11b/g/n Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 2.1, and a 1530mAH battery. It’s also fairly light, tipping the scales at about 450 grams.
That $300 price point puts the A100 in a sweet spot for consumers, though one of Acer’s competitors is said to be preparing a price drop at around the same time as the A100 launch. Asus just might bump the already reasonable Eee Pad Transformer down from it’s current $399, which would certainly make things a bit more interesting. There’s also the 8-inch tablet from Vizio hovering as well — currently selling for $329 on Amazon.
Regardless of whether or not the A100 is a retail success for Acer remains to be seen, but it looks like we’re in for some exciting price battles when it comes to Android tablets.

Lenovo IdeaPad K1 tablet: First impressions
The FedEx guy dropped off Lenovo’s first Android Honeycomb tablet this morning, the IdeaPad K1. The K1 is a 10-inch tablet running Android 3.1, not the latest version, along with some Lenovo customizations designed to help it stand out from the growing Honeycomb crowd. I’ve only had time to get it set up and play with it for a bit so I can only share first impressions of the K1.
