Hardware keyboard fans must feel like they're part of an endangered species -- there's greater uncertainty these days about software updates, let alone new smartphones. If you're part of that persecuted group, AT&T and Samsung have your back: they've just started rolling out Android 4.0 for the [Captivate Glide](http://www.engadget.com/2011/12/21/samsung-captivate-glide-review/). All of the features will be familiar if you've borrowed [someone's Galaxy S II](http://www.engadget.com/2012/06/11/android-4-0-3-now-available-for-t-mobile-galaxy-s-ii/) in the past few months, although it's hard to object to the better multitasking and support for [Chrome](http://www.engadget.com/2012/06/27/google-chrome-for-android/). About the only catch is the need to use Kies to grab the update, but that's a small sacrifice we're sure many are willing to make.
