Google search is your friend. No need to start a new thread.
Honeycomb is Android 3.+
Ice Cream Sandwich is Android 4.0

2.4 is still Gingerbread. It is a minor branch.
2.0 and 2.1 were both Eclair as well.

Looking at it with Xperia range numbers, the 2.3.4 update is going to be named somthing like:
Code:
[STRIKE]3.1.X.A/C/D/F/G.X.XXX[/STRIKE] 4.0.A/C/E/F/G.X.XXX

2. 4 doesn't exist, you mean to 2.3.4 which is still gingerbread.
Question I have is what will the next android number be? Afterall the tablets have 3.0 so will it carry on from 2.4? Or go to 4?

there were rumors about 2.5 but 3.0 HC "honey comb" took it's place.
All the versions are named alphabetically.

As it's not a major update it will have3.1​As opposed to the current3.0​
Like I mentioned in the post earlier.
Edit:
It will probably be named 4.0 for the 2.3.4 update on the Xperia's

Thread closed on account of the fact its not x10 related

ebay scammer

This douche is trying to sell a Galaxy S and is advertising that it is unopened and unused with Android 2.4 "Ice cream sandwich" installed. I want to report him but can't find anything in the "report policy" that pertains to this. I don't use ebay all that often, is this quite common? Hopefully most people ignore it and don't fall for it.

ICS is supposed to be where Honeycomb and Gingerbread meet and work for both tablets and phones. However, there is no ICS in the wild, if there were it would be here and it certainly isn't on a brand new Galaxy S 1.

Any chance that Ice Cream Sandwich really IS loaded onto the device?

No.

Well I don't give a Flying fox what you think (cwutididthar). It would help a lot if they assisted me. It'll be a ton easier once we have cm7 mostly working.

It borrows heavily from MIUI, but it's incredibly customizable. You can customize your status bar, icons, lockscreen, Dialer, Font, SMS, Boot Animation, etc. It is also one of the fastest ROMs. The Music App tells you the lyrics.

So, while we're all relieved and all, the timing is very strange. Does anyone know the kernel version requirement of ICS?

They mentioned no kernel requirement. But also what the f*ck Samsung? Now of all times. It feels as if this was done on purpose. lol

Copyright issues.

The OP is simply theorizing what might have been based on the newfound knowledge that the initial versions were Astro and Bender. Not too difficult to figure out.

yeah forgot about the eclair, but my point was that the names mentioned in the OP completely strange and they make no sense.

BTW - The next version of android might be "Kandy Kane" instead of the expected "Key Lime Pie", because of the candycane clue found floating in the jellybean easter egg.
If this turns out to be the case, I'll have to get a red battery case for my white S3 to turn it into a red/white kandy cane theme.

Much better than Key Lime Pie.

Wow guys. The OP just made those up for a "what if" scenario. He wasn't citing actual names...rofl.
