Google and Samsung will be hosting their joint Ice Cream Sandwich-New
Nexus Phone event in Hong Kong on October 19th at 10:00am local time
(which is October 18th at 10:00pm EST). The event, originally planned for October 11, was delayed out of respect for the late Steve Jobs.
Ice Cream Sandwich, or Android 4.0 for those of you not familiar with
the code name, will unify the disparate smartphone (Android 2.x) and
tablet (Android 3.x) versions of its mobile OS with a consistent UI and
app framework. This will hopefully enable developers to more easily port
their apps to all of the many screen sizes and resolutions that Android
devices sport. As is normal with new Android launches, Samsung is
expected to reveal a new phone that will show off the new operating
system's capabilities and serve as a baseline for other Android
partners' devices.
You can expect more from us about the new Android version and the new Samsung phone as details are revealed.
