Samsung Galaxy S II on AT&T gets Android 4.0, leaves Sprint left to go

[![Samsung Galaxy S II on AT&T gets Android 40, just Sprint left to go][1] ][2]

We've seen [T-Mobile roll out Android 4.0][3] for its Galaxy S II variant, and now another American carrier is joining the pack. AT&T has started pushing out Android 4.0.3 (no 4.0.4, oddly) to its [near-reference version][4] of Samsung's 2011 range leader. We wouldn't brace for any surprises over the conservative OS updates seen elsewhere in the world, but it will at least give you [Chrome for Android][5] without turning to custom firmware. The odd man out among the major US carriers is Sprint's [Epic 4G Touch][6] -- it's still humming along on 2.3 for now, and neither Sprint nor Samsung has given any further signs that they're ready to make the leap.

[Thanks, Tom]
