No dates are given for when upgrades will occur, however...

If you’re like most Android users, you’re still stuck on Android 2.3 (“Gingerbread”) even though Google is constantly tantalizing you with glimpses of its fancy new Android 4.0 (“Ice Cream Sandwich”) operating system.  Verizon today has helped relieve some anxiety among its own Android users by releasing a list of all devices due to get upgraded.  If you’re feeling too lazy to click on the link, here’s the list:

HTC:

  • HTC ThunderBolt™
  • DROID Incredible 2 by HTC
  • HTC Rhyme™
  • HTC Rezound™

Motorola:

  • Motorola XOOM
  • DROID BIONIC™
  • DROID RAZR™
  • DROID RAZR™ MAXX™ 
  • DROID 4 
  • DROID XYBOARD 8.2
  • DROID XYBOARD 10.1

Samsung:

  • Samsung Galaxy Tab™ 10.1
  • Samsung Galaxy Tab™ 7.7

LG:

  • Spectrum™ by LG

Of course, it doesn’t help that Verizon provided absolutely no details of when these devices would get Android 4.0, but we’ll take whatever we can.  As for m’self, it seems that my trusty Droid X is stuck with Gingerbread until its last days, which is OK since I’m due for an upgrade in August anyway.  How about the rest of you?  Is your super-cool Android device getting ICS?
