Samsung was expected to introduce next week during the CTIA conference in San Diego, at their Samsung Mobile Unpacked event, the famous Samsung Nexus Prime. The Nexus Prime is Google’s flagship device and is the world’s first Ice Cream Sandwich phone.
Unfortunately, Google and Samsung released the following statement in which they are cancelling the launch of the device,
“Samsung and Google have decided to postpone the Samsung Mobile Unpacked event during the CTIA in San Diego, previously scheduled for Oct. 11. Under the current circumstances, both parties have agreed that this is not the appropriate time for the announcement of a new product. We would ask for the understanding of our clients and media for any inconvenience caused. We will announce a new date and venue in due course.”
The reason? The passing of Apple’s co-founder Steve Jobs.
Some people are also speculating that because Apple only launched an iPhone 4S, Google can focus more on refining its Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich OS and make it better unstead of delivering it in a hurry and cutting down on functionalities.
Either way, it seems now that the Ice Cream Sandwich OS along with the Nexus Prime cellphone will be out by the end of November. I so can’t wait anymore!
