Nexus One owners, it may finally be time to upgrade your handsets.
Google has confirmed today that the original Google flagship device, the Nexus One, is "too old" to receive the update to Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich and therefore will not be getting the update.
Nexus S users, on the other hand, will be getting the upgrade "within weeks" of its launch.
The Nexus One was released in January 2010 and was the first device to run Android 2.1.
Finally, responding to Microsoft CEO's statement that users "need a computer science degree" to use Android phones, Google's Hugo Barra says "Android, especially this new version 4.0, is an incredibly intuitive platform - the best one we've ever built. There are power user features, but there is no need for an instruction manual or a computer science degree."
