Attention HTC Amaze 4G owners, T-Mobile has an update ready for you. And, yes, it’s Android 4.0. The upgrade to Ice Cream Sandwich can be pulled from the HTC Software Updates dialog under Settings and brings about all the enhancements you might expect from a move to the latest Android OS> The new software is pretty similar to that released for the HTC Sensation 4G last week and features Sense 3.6 as opposed to Sense 4, which features on HTC’s recent ICS models such as the HTC One X . Despite keeping an older version of HTC’s custom interface, the Amaze 4G is expected to take advantage of the performance increases inherent in Android 4.0. You’ll need at least 50 percent battery to initiate the update and a WiFi connection is recommended due to the large download size. [via Android and Me ] 
ASUS hi-def Transformer Pad Infinity Series has made a pit stop at the FCC en route to its release. The WiFi version of the TF700T was put through the paces flashing its Tegra 3 speed. The same can’t be said for the LTE-equipped model, which hasn’t shown face in an FCC report just yet. We’d imagine the time for that will be soon enough.

Here's where the whole “buy low” bit comes into play.
Just a little over three months after Google got the green light from the US Department of Justice and the European Commission they have finally received the blessing of Chinese regulators to acquire Motorola Mobility. Google did have to agree to one fairly major stipulation in the process however — Android must remain freely available to other manufacturers for the next five years. Now it seems likely that this is exactly what Google has in mind anyway, but this should assuage any lingering doubts for other manufacturers. According to WSJs sources the purchase could be finalized within the week. What, if anything, we will see happen once the deal goes through has been a bit of a mystery ever since we first heard of the planned buyout over nine months ago
Hot on the heels of US customs imposing an International Trade Commission ban on select HTC devices we have yet another exclusion order from the ITC, but this time around it’s Microsoft winning their patent claim against Motorola. The patent in question dates back to 1998 and relates to scheduling a meeting with a group using a mobile device and having that event sync across mobile devices and PCs. As with many of these claims this sounds like fairly ridiculous feature to be able to patent, but the key is always in the exact implementation of the feature so it’s possible that Motorola will be able to come up with another way of handling the function (that is the tactic HTC employed in their case). As you may recall from the HTC ruling this exclusion order doesn’t have any immediate ramifications for consumers as first the order goes to President Obama, who has 60 days to overturn the ruling should he so desire. My understanding is that the likelihood of this is just slightly higher than the next iPhone running Jelly Bean
