“Would the owner of a T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II please report to the Kies service desk at 11 p.m. EST,” “you have an Android 4.0.3 update waiting for you.”

That’s right, the T-Mobile Galaxy S II is set to receive Android 4.0.3 tonight, and although it isn’t Android 4.0.4, it’s still Ice Cream Sandwich, so I’m sure you Galaxy S II owners won’t be complaining — much.

Wirefly, my other favorite mobile retailer, has a nice offer for anyone looking to pick up a Verizon 4G LTE smartphone. Now through June 14, anyone who upgrades or activates a Verizon 4G LTE smartphone through Wirefly will receive a $40 bill credit. You can activate and receive the discount on up to five 4G LTE devices for each qualifying line.

Verizon Wireless has started selling Sony’s SmartWatch and SmartWatch accessories online and in-store. The Sony SmartWatch was released back in April as an easy and convenient way to check text messages, emails, Facebook and Twitter updates, as well as a slew of other things without the need to always reach for your phone.

Android 4.0 has begun rolling out to all Verizon Motorola XOOM customers after a brief soak test last week. The update is being pushed in phases and brings with it the awesomeness of Ice Cream Sandwich and a whole slew of features and fixes. Check below for the full changelog:
