I wish it was that easy. Nobody has it on a Connect yet. It is likely to get ICS, but I doubt it will be really soon.

 

Not available yet. But you can get an ICS theme from the market.

 

The connect is newer by a few months. The esteem is preferred by some for the slightly larger screen, more internal storage and HDMI while others like the connect for the dual core processor, double the ram and nova display. It comes down to personal preference. I've seen them compared a few times in the forums.

 

go launcher ex ics them... closest you'll get as of now

 

I am wondering what typing has to do with ICS. There are many different keyboards available to use that pretty much work on any Android. SWYPE is already built in to the Connect. Also give SwiftKey a look. Then there is the Gingerbread keyboard from the market that seems to be the best for battery life.

 

I think he's saying he had to do an inny minnie miny moe when picking between the esteem and connect.

 

He's not alone there. I spent a lot of time going between them and weighing pros and cons before I could make a decision.

 

Oh, got it. I am not good at reading the non-English slang that seems to throw up all over the Internet lately.

 

What exactly would the benefit be with ICS on a smartphone as opposed to a Tablet ? In other words why would you want to get ICS on your Connect 4G ?

 

Better all around performance. Exclusive applications (youtube chrome .ect) its multitasking improved. The whole thing is skinned very nice.

 

There will be a time in the not so distant future where you will need ICS to be able to run some new apps. Chrome is the only one I can think of right now, but there will be more.

 

+1 ics is not just an improvement for tables. It greatly improves performance and the entire ui is smoother. I honestly can't consider going back to 2.3
You'll see

 

One thing that has not been mentioned between the connect and the esteem, well the connect can do voice and data on 4G while the esteem cannot unless your on wifi which means ur not on 4G anyways.

 

Yes, I forgot about that one.

 

Does this mean that you can check something on the Internet or view received Email Images while on a call on the Connect ?

 

Correct
