Rumor: Android 4.0 will be called the Ice Cream

Icecream expected to follow Gingerbread and Honeycomb in 2011.

Google has since the launch of Android 1.5 operating system named after sweets. First came Cupcake (1.5) in May 2009, later followed so Donut (1.6, September 2009), Eclair (2.0, October 2009) and last Froyo (2.2) - short for Frozen yoghurt.

Google has already announced that even follow ups on Froyo, will be called the Gingerbread (3.0) and honeycomb (3.5), but have so far kept the name of Android 4.0 secret.

Now, says one of Google's partners, processor manufacturer ARM's vd Tudor Brown to Forbes that Android 4.0 will be called Ice Cream.

It is not the first time that Google lets one partner reveal the name one of their upcoming operating system, and also speaks highly of the rumor is true - who is not disgustingly many sweets that starts with "I".

The question is just when speculation about the sequel to Ice Cream get started? What next? Jellybeans?
