Ice Cream to Follow Honeycomb? Android Menu Getting Even Yummier

Froyo has yet to reach all the Android devices and we all know that Gingerbread is the work-in-progress. But that hasn't stopped the rumormills fromspeculating about the newer version of Android. If we believe what ARM President Tudor Brown told Forbes, then the next version of Android would be called Ice Cream. There is little reason to believe that Brown is being facetious, trying to sabotage our diet regimen. So we are just going to trust him.

On the other hand, SDK for Gingerbread is likely to be released next week and that kit would soon be followed by the one for Honeycomb. Honeycomb is expected to be geared towards tablets. And if you are feeling overwhelmed with all these yummy versions, then take a breather.  Andy "World doesn't need WP7" Rubin has reportedly said that the update cycle will soon be whittled down to once a year. After all, there are only so many letters in the alphabet.

And if you care about the geekier version of Update names, then Forbes has referred to Gingerbread and Honeycomb as 3.0 and 3.5. However, the consensus is that Gingerbread is more likely to be an incremental update than being a full-fledged update. Let us know your views about the new name or are you already getting sick of sugary sweetness?
