LG's Android 4.0 upgrades for Optimus LTE, LTE Tag, Vu start in June

[![LG Optimus LTE, Optimus LTE Tag, Optimus Vu][1] ][2]

LG has been leaving its smartphone owners on pins and needles for their [promised Android 4.0 upgrades][3]. It's now starting to take action: if we go by poorly machine-translated Korean, the Optimus LTE, [Optimus LTE Tag][4] and [Optimus Vu][5] will all get Google's latest starting June 4th. Everyone gets the [new UI 3.0 layer][6], but those who've leapt on the Optimus Vu's [phablet][7] frame will get "additional features" that we understand will take advantage of the extra-wide dimensions for side-by-side note-taking. LG's remarks still leave some gaps in the Ice Cream Sandwich story, such as when [Nitro HD][8] owners get the new software. Even so, we're glad to see that owners of LG's _creme de la creme_ in at least some corners of the Earth can enjoy Chrome and other Android 4.0 perks in the very near future.
