Android Ice Cream version of Google TV could accommodate

In the last Mobile World Congress, Google told us in the words of Eric Schmidt, the next major release of its operating system to come to join Honeycomb Gingerbread. Ie tablets with telephones, talking about Ice Cream. We believe that these statements were made with time to try to mute the issue of fragmentation around Android at birth, which logically would be more concern with the advent of the tablets.

Today we hear new stories, to be confirmed, which suggests that Google TV also want to be part of Ice Cream. Google intends to join the development of different systems on the same project, the AOSP (Android Open Source Project), and Ice Cream will be the first version brand new possibility.

The search company would officially inform the movement in the next Google IO, held on 10 and 11 May. Google TV has enormous potential ahead of developers and customers, and Google wants you to take advantage of the terrain traveled with mobile devices, opening the door to televisions Android Market: Finishing last month we informed you that Google delayed the launch of the code Honeycomb source for developers, the decision may be influenced by the inclusion of the Google TV and Ice Cream.

We understand they want to start from scratch with the code base of the three systems involved in the Ice Cream time is presented. If we look at the sessions scheduled over the next Google TV Google IO see that there is only one devoted to television-oriented system, his name: "Building Android Apps for Google TV", a very descriptive name of Google's intentions.

No more sessions explicitly find the name of Google TV seems to be no concern for the interests of the system, because if the news is materialized, all having to do with Android will also be important for TVs. Although the news is unconfirmed makes all the sense in the world, if you also remember that the fate of Chrome OS will also merge with Android, we understand that all lines of development of the house passed to join the bandwagon of an operating system with a name recognition (and ecosystem) in the market, such as Android.

Interestingly Google has designed a new Doodle, or logo for your browser, which you can see an ice cream drawn from the letters of the company. If we investigate the reasons that has been created by the 119 anniversary of the first documented ice cream, but it seems a rather strange time to celebrate, paving the way?: Track | GTVSource | Phandroid
