Android 3.0 (3.1, 3.2) Honeycomb are for tablets not for smartphones, as I recalled we are supposed to get 2.3.4 on Q4 and the next Android version for both tablets and smartphones will be

Android Ice Cream Sandwich

which will be released Q4

but the thing is.....there are rumors creeping that.....arc snapdragon processor can withstand the HONEYCOMB update......and it is also stated that HONEY COMB doesnt need DUAL CORE processor.......and even it is said that ARC will get OFFICIAL UPDATE......

the update to the Arc was just released and is slowly been available to different countries/networks but is 2.3.3

honeycomb can be isntalled on the Arc even on the X10, but it was made for larger screens

can we connect our usb or pendrive to our arc? do we have any micro usb convertors?i heard that honeycomb can directly detect data from pen drive n external camera can be connected to it....do we have this facility in arc?
