Motorola Droid Xyboard 8.9, 10.1 Ice Cream Sandwich Goes Live At Verizon (Android 4 ICS)

We got some pretty disturbing news at the end of September when we found out that the Ice Cream Sandwich update for the Motorola Droid Xyboard 8.2 got officially pushed back, but then just a few days later we also received the good news that, after a bit of effort from Motorola’s part, the Android 4.0 update for the aforementioned tablet might be just around the corner.

Well, whether or not this period of time seemed long or short, the Motorola Droid Xyboard 8.9 and 10.1 at Verizon are now receiving the long-awaited Android 4.0 iteration.

Here’s the skinny folks, both the 8.9 and 10.1 variants of the Droid Xyboard are now receiving the anticipated Ice Cream Sandwich update. That being said, in case you’re a Verizon customer and you happen to own one of these gadgets, head down to Settings > About Tablet > System updates and fire up the updating process.

The new OS version itself will bring what you would normally expect from an ICS upgrade, including Face Unlock, video chat, Google Voice, the ability to cap data usage and a better, faster browser just to name a few.

In the end, we know that at this point we all crave Jelly Bean, but if Android 4.1 will arrive on the aforementioned tablets, it’s better to wait while enjoying some good ol’ Ice Cream Sandwich, right?

Feel free to drop us a line if you’ve already received the update and let us know if everything works as intended. Enjoy and stay tuned for more.
