Back in November, [Meizu's][3] CEO Jack Wong casually mentioned an [update to Ice Cream Sandwich][4] would be making its way to [MX][5] and [M9][6] handsets, he just didn't specify _when_ exactly. Well, that all important tidbit's been cleared up today with official news pegging a software upgrade to Android 4.0 for sometime this June.
