I don't understand why the Rezound, come on the thunderbolt should be the first to get ICS as soon as August hits. I'm a thunderbolt owner and I'm just speechless on the lack of HTC and there updates.
Um...yeah. The Rezound is a newer phone, so of course it will get the update first. Since the release of Android have we ever seen a time when it is the older phones getting priority when it comes to updates? No, newer phones have more compatible hardware, sell better and make more money for OEMs and carriers...so that's where the R&D effort is going to go.
To be honest, I'm shocked the Rezound is *just* getting the update.
HTC and/or Verizon aren't gonna sell any more Thunderbolts regardless of what OS it has on it at this point...so do you think they really care?
A lot of Rezound owners have been having fits for months. In fact, I tried to install a leak last week and things didn't go the way they were supposed to, so another Rezound forum member and I were all set to try again this weekend, when miraculously the update was pushed. I truly didn't think it was going to happen, so there is hope for Thunderbolt owners!!

To be honest, I am not in any hurry to get ICS for my TBolt. Yeah yeah yeah, it would be nice to get it and all, but, what's the big deal...most of us will be upgrading (one way or another), within the next 6+ months. To me, what is important is that BIG RED get's their 4G on/off issues fixed. I would gladly wait a month for that instead of waiting to get ICS. Besides, once there is an unofficial/official "leak" of it..the developers will be on that like ugly on a a dog.
