I'll post this question here so I don't add to the clutter of the development section. I know ics is being compiled and tested for the admire and that's fantastic that it is even being worked on, but how is a phone with less than 300mb ram going to handle ics? I own a Droid x2 and cm9 has memory issues with ~500mb of ram. I'm just curious as to what others thoughts are on the subject.

I'm not going to say for certain, but I would imagine that the smaller screen size and smaller image resolution would allow it to take up less space than a larger phone. Again, I'm not 100% certain on that, but c'mon, I have CM9 on my wifes LG Optimus M and it runs great, and I think the Admire is SLIGHTLY more powerful. I, personally, look forward to seeing ICS on the Admire as I am stuck in a 2yr contract with no money to buy a better phone

It's possible, and probable. It's going to need to be toned down due to memory concerns, and it'll most likely happen via CM9 rather than AOSP.

There's a difference between total RAM and free RAM. The OS needs a dedicated amount to run properly, the rest we get to play with.
