Rezound Official ICS Update Shelved?

[Dovahkiin]

Droid RAZR/RAZR MAXX get Ice Cream Sandwich!

The clock is ticking...
I'll give you 2 full business days starting as of Friday, June 22, 2012 10:00am ET (a bonus 4 minutes from the AC post at 9:56am)

So come Tuesday, June 26, 2012 10:01am ET we will know who the winner is.
(Of course, even if I win, we will still all be losers in the ICS waiting game.)

Hey, you can't turn down the bet and then agree to it later on, that's not how it works.
I'll humor you though and agree to it. Today is Friday, however. We know weekends don't count for these sort of things, so extend my clock until Tuesday and let's see what happens. Step it up HTC/Verizon, don't make me look bad.

Edit: Motorola put a post on their site about a "select number of individuals", meaning those that signed up for the soak. Yet Verizon is saying that the full launch is today. So it looks like no one knows when the hell it's coming.

Agreed, but when did I turn it down? I was looking for terms previously.

Time hasn't even started. It's still in soak testing. When the OTA is actually pushed, then we'll talk. By my calendar, Moto's got 4 days to deliver on the time limit.

AC post declared it officially released. Assuming similar lag, there should be a similar post for Rezound.

Yeah, I have an issue with news outlets that did this. That's like announcing a movie officially released, but it only had a red carpet premiere. You can grab a Razr, hit "System Update", and won't even get a hint of ICS being available, I assure you.

Going by vzw, the rez is 80 and the bionic is 100. Not sure where you are getting your pricing

I learned the hardway yesterday that $79 Rezounds are an on-line only deal. In-store = $199. Same discrepancy with the Galaxy Nexus. I ordered a Rezound upgrade online yesterday, and depending on delivery tomorrow so I can activate it before 6/28.

I'm comfy with resetting the clock until it actually is available. It won't make a difference.... Unless they hold out on razr until after labor day.

Yes, said news source is chronically unreliable.

My local verizon store matched the online price.

It's not available for pull, but Motorola is straining those Super Nintendo processors to make sure 1 out of every 100 people have ICS.

The soak did. The masses don't have it and no eta for when they will yet

The push started happening before that.

Ice Cream Sandwich now available for everyone with a Droid RAZR/RAZR MAXX by Phil Nickinson on 6/30/2012

My brother-in-law was her e today with his razr maxx and he updated to ics while he was here. So it's definitely out for public consumption.

His first response was, "oh no, I don't like this!"

Be careful what you wish for!

 

[idiotekniques]

[SurfingJerry]

I would consider doing that, but then what would I have left to kvetch about?

ICS is great but I like ICS on my Maxx better than the leak on my Rezound. I just wish the Maxx had the same 4g radio my Rezound has.

That about sums up my experience as well. I'm still kinda bummed that ICS on the Rezound is gonna look so Gingerbready.
