Santa Claus, the Tooth Fairy, and human interaction for Google Tech Support. What do these things all have in common? None of them exist.

The Instagram Android app debuted only three days ago and it’s already been updated twice. The latest update is an important one that addresses two of the biggest complaints I brought up in the review : camera crashes and failure to import.

Even though it has been released for some time, Android’s latest version, 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich, runs on very few devices. Actually, as we found out yesterday from the past two weeks’ Android Platform Versions chart , ICS accounted for only 1.6 percent of Android Market visits made during that period.
