However, of course one must realise that at time these unnamed insider sources can be somewhat unreliable, and word has come down before that the ICS update would hit the VerizonMotorola Droid RAZR soon in the past, but as yet hasn’t become a reality, so with that in mind there could be a possibility that the 12th of June is the date, but for now this should be treated as pure rumour.
