When you get Jelly Bean. Or someone unofficially ports it over. Like its already been done I believe.

I just put it on my xoom last night and it's working great, lost my radio but who cares with share everything i will never activate it anyway unless it's free, it's actually keeping up pretty good side by side with my gf's nexus 7

Beckeramos post right above your's will get you Google Now. You don't need to be on Jellybean, this will work on any verison of ICS. Read the ENTIRE thing before you ask questions on that thread....if not they will publicly embarrass you.

I started reading that thread but stopped when I read the part that I would need to root my device, if that is incorrect let me know. I started reading about rooting :blink:, I quicly came to the conclusion it's probably not worth the hassle, not for me anyway.

Honestly its just too easy to root these days that there is no hassle. All you have to do is download DROID razr utility... And let it do its thing.

Here is the link for the utility... http://www.droidrzr.com/index.php/t...-182-windows-for-verizon-droid-razrmaxx-only/

Read it. It's worth it.

I couldn't do it...but I don't have a home computer anymore.

Read it. It's worth it.

Thank you, I'll read it over the weekend.

I didn't see there's a utility so that probably reduces the complexity. Now my biggest concern is if I goof something up it could be painful. I'm much more reliant on this device than ever before, at this point I'm trying to justify the risk/reward.

ICS has caused a number of glitches that I'm trying to resolve. My understanding is if I root my device I'm on my own for support but not sure that matters since Verizon hasn't been much help...
