Archos may be a month late on their promise to update their G9 tablets to Android 4.0 but it’s here now and they’re still ahead of many top manufacturers. Archos has begun rolling out Ice Cream Sandwich to their G9 lineup and if you’re the proud owner of a G9 7 or 10-inch tablet, you can expect to receive Android 4.0 in an OTA update soon.

We’re two weeks away from launch day, the day Angry Birds boldly goes where no bird has gone before. I’m of course talking about Angry Birds Space, Rovio’s next Angry Bird iteration which looks to turn the series upside down. To prepare us for the challenges of launching a projectile in a weightless environment while compensating for the gravity fields of neighboring planetary bodies, NASA astronaut Dan Pettit gives us a quick physics lesson while aboard the International Space Station.

Verizon’s 12-day “DROID Does” sale is winding down and there’s only 4 days left to take advantage of the numerous DROID phones on sale for $9.99. While I’m sure Verizon is doing this to clear out some stock, it’s still a good deal for anyone looking to pick up a solid device on the cheap. Verizon is offering up the 4G LTE Samsung DROID Charge, the DROID 3, DROID Incredible 2, and DROID X2 all for $9.99 on a new 2-year contract. Not bad considering these devices retail for $400+.

This one’s for all the privileged users out there rocking Chrome For Android Beta on their Ice Cream Sandwich devices. Your soon to be default browser just received an update to squash some bugs. Apparently there were some issues preventing Chrome from starting up on some versions of Android 4.0, which as you may already know, is the only OS version that supports Chrome For Android Beta.

Google has recently filed for a patent that may just have early navigators rising from the dead to sue for royalties. This new patent would allow a user to have their location determined by landmarks around them. It would work by having a user take a picture of a landmark, upload it to Google, and then receive information about their location. The whole idea sounds impractical considering you can just fire up your Google Maps/Navigation but Google claims it can come in handy when in a foreign country and finding signs or assistance in your native language could be difficult. I’m not buying that and I have my own theory.
