Maybe I'm gullible or wistfully thinking, but I think the release date (or even rollout of the OTA) will begin this Sunday. My Twitter handle is @deathbyfugu1987 if you'd like to confirm.

We would have already seen documentation on VerizonWireless regarding the OTA. They do it for every Android update..and usually that's how we know it's coming. HTC has already announced that the Sensation line is getting ICS next month with the rest of us "later this year". I can't see how / why they would spring an update on us that as of the last leaks, weren't nearly ready for primetime.
"This Sunday you’ll hear something authentic." Hmmm. Something authentic from them will be saying later this year we will receive it
Wishful thinking. We'll probably see an RC leak before the official release.
Why do we care? Don't we already have a pretty stable version of ICS?

Sent from my Evo View 4g
I hope this is true. I suppose there might be an argument that since this is one of the few tablets with a pen, an ICS update (with more pen-utilizing code) would show off its capabilities better. And maybe the delay in HC is that internally within HTC a shift toward ICS was decided upon to save resources. Well, here's hoping. I would prefer ICS over HC, especially for the pen capabilities.
Well there you have it. We are saved. . If this guy says it, it must be true.
By the way, Acer and Motorola have announced January ICS updates to tne A100 and A500 and Xoom
Yeah, we'll get it when Jello Mold (or whatever) comes out.

Agree, take it with a pinch of salt.
I'd be surprised that HTC allow employees to publish that kind of information, when it's not saying anything publically at the moment.
I realise that he does say that this is his opinion, but if really a "Sense" developer that opinion would have to have been formed based on "inside" information, and hence I'd have thought he wouldn't be 'employee of the month' at the moment.
Untrusting in me, suspects the his/her closest connection to HTC is ownership of a device.....but I'd have to add that this is his/her only post that I've seen. There maybe posts which would give more crediblity to their claims.

Why don't these companies make it public if they are working on a update? I really don't see harm in it. This hard to get game drives me further away from them. Specially when a device comes out and they promise so much with it and then once they pocket your bucks, they some what push you away or forget about you.
"BAD HTC. You big player now? so you think you treat your customers bad! This will only bring your downfall. You climb too fast and you lose your grip - you fall fast and you fall hard. I for one wont be there with life net if you keep treating me like this".
Sorry for expressing my compressed anger at htc here. I dont have fb account to message them there.

No, I agree it makes sense to switch to ICS but they should communicate with their customers in some official form. This way we won't get our hopes up when some guy posts a "maybe" list on his google+ page.

I wonder if they will make an official announcement at CES?
I'd imagine it would be sense 4.0, but considering the lack of leaks to 4.0, I'd say it would run over 3.5. Just my 2 cents

Considering the end of the month is in two days.. this is exciting. We've already heard this might arrive in January. If they think the may possibly have it by the end of the month it feels like we can't be more than a week away from having it. Here's hoping for Monday .
Does anyone know if Sense 3.6 = Sense 4.0? I mean last week there was this thing about Pocketnow.com trying out "Sense 4.0" and praising it a lot. Does anyone know if s that the same version of Sense we should expect when the update hits?

Meh, don't care what version of Sense it uses. I'll just be excited that the Kernel source for it will have to be released, which SHOULD fast-track AOSP development, also, it will be based on Linux 3.x, and could (most likely will) update the radio.

The sensation came out a couple of months before the Amaze, so it makes a little sense that it would get it first.
I'm perfectly fine with waiting a couple of months, I'd rather have a official update that's more glitch free than a early one that hasn't been properly tested.

Right. At this point an OTA would be a downgrade for some. But it will def help perfect the ICS builds.
it's not even that it's the kernel source they release like 2 weeks after the ota that we need.
