安卓发布新版本4.0：冰激凌三明治

Google has taken the stage in Hong Kong to make the next version of Android OS, nicknamed Ice Cream Sandwich, a thing of reality. Better known as Android 4.0, the update offers a massive redesign to the user interface and adds a plethora of new features. Some of the highlights include an NFC-enabled feature called Android Beam, offline search in Gmail, new lock screen features and a fancy unlocking method called "Face Unlock," which uses facial recognition to ensure strangers can't use your phone without permission. Ice Cream Sandwich also includes enhancements in almost every native app within Android itself. The SDK is already available for Android 4.0, and the update itself will make its first public appearance on the Samsung Galaxy Nexus, also unveiled tonight.

谷歌今天在香港发布了自己的新版本操作系统，代号为冰激凌三明治。这个新版本另一个更为人所知的名字叫做安卓4.0，这一次更新提供了大量重新设计过的界面以及更多的新功能。这些功能当中包括被着重强调的NFC近场交换技术，它使安卓有了一个新功能叫做Androit Beam，同时还增添了离线邮件搜索，新的锁屏功能以及一个非常有吸引力的面部识别解锁功能，这个功能使用面部识别来使陌生人无法在你不允许的情况下使用你的电话。冰激凌三明治也增强了几乎所有安卓自带的软件。开发者工具包已经可以开发针对安卓4.0的软件了，这个系统更新本身将会率先在三星的Galaxy Nexus中使用，这款新电话将会在今晚发布。
