The Nexus S 4G will be the first Sprint device to get Ice Cream Sandwich, the latest and greatest new version of Android.  So what will Nexus S 4G users be in for?

According to the press release, Android 4.0 adds numerous enhancements and new features, including:

· Web browser now lets you sync Google Chrome™ bookmarks, request full desktop versions of sites, see your open tabs in a new layout and even store web pages for offline reading

· People: browse friends, family and coworkers, see their photos in high-resolution and check their latest status updates from Google+ and other social networks

· Improved keyboard with incredibly accurate typing, an inline spell checker and improved copy and paste support

· New Calendar app that lets you add events quickly, sync with Google Calendar™ or Microsoft Exchange and even pinch to adjust your calendar display
