Android 4.0 now available for LG Optimus 2X... in South Korea, anyway

[![Ice Cream Sandwich now available for LG Optimus 2X in South Korea, anyway](http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2012/08/optimus2x.jpg) ](http://www.engadget.com/2012/08/31/android-4-now-available-for-lg-optimus-2x/)

Once upon a time, the [LG Optimus 2X](http://www.engadget.com/2011/02/07/lg-optimus-2x-review/) was a big deal. After all, it introduced the masses to the NVIDIA Tegra 2. Following nearly a year of neglect, this handset -- supposedly built for enthusiasts -- is now eligible for an update to Android 4.0. Unfortunately, the software isn't yet available globally, and only those in South Korea can get in on the action. If that weren't discouraging enough, LG Canada remains insistent that [it won't ever distribute Ice Cream Sandwich](http://www.engadget.com/2012/08/05/refresh-roundup-week-of-july-30th-2012/) for the Optimus 2X. Whoever still owns this handset, ever get the feeling that you deserve better?
