We simply love wallpapers. They’re one of the first changes we make to our Android devices and often represent our moods, interests, or wicked alter egos. They’re as unique as the individuals who use them and while some people pick one and stick with it, others change them more often than a teenager’s Facebook status.

Not only has the Xperia Arc and Neo begun receiving Ice Cream Sandwich, but a slew of other devices which were previously updated to 4.0.3, are now being bumped up to Android 4.0.4.
