This may not be from the most official of HTC sources and it may not be the most precise information, but at the very least this leak of Ice Cream Sandwich rollout plans gives us the info on which devices we will see the ICS update, and ease the fears of some HTC users in Europe. There is certainly a chance that the release info could be correct for the US as well, but we certainly wouldn't jump to that conclusion.
We say it may not be the most precise info because the first thing you may notice is that it claims the HTC EVO 3D was supposed to get ICS in December 2011, but that hasn't happened yet. After the EVO 3D, the table says the HTC Sensation, HTC Sensation XE, HTC Sensation XL, Amaze HTC 4G, HTC Rezound, HTC EVO 4G Design and HTC Vivid are ‘confirmed’ to receive the Ice Cream Sandwich update this month.
It feels like this list may be somewhat old. Having the EVO 3D planned release in December seems like a date that the company would have set back when we all expected the Ice Cream Sandwich source code to drop before November, because given that the source was released in mid-November (although we should expect HTC had early builds to work on before), putting out such a heavily customized ROM like HTC's Sense in just a month would be a very tough task.
