Google demonstrated the power of Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich) earlier at Hong Kong. Now, they have just released its source code to the repositories! If you are a developer, grab the latest source now and start compiling! If you are a normal user, start counting your fingers!
Now, all the Android phone manufacturers like HTC, Samsung and Motorolla will have to download the source and update their devices to the latest version of Android.
Apart from them, even the custom Rom developers will start their work. If you prefer to customize your phone even more and keep it up-to-date, you might have already switched to a custom Rom. Most of the time, these people are the first to release the new updates… But, we just saw the following update on Cyanogenmod’s twitter stream :
..and we’re off. check back in 2 months :) #cm9 #ics

What does this mean? Are they planing to take 2 whole months to release ICS? According to CM, they will work on Cyanogenmod 7.2 while building CM 9 which will contain the latest Android 4.
But, if you can’t wait, you can always try the nightlies after they start working on it! So, stick with us and we’ll let you know as soon as they start their work…
