Google has announced that the next version of Android will be called
“Jelly Bean” and that it will appear in the new Galaxy Nexus HSPA+
phone.The phone showed up briefly on Google Play before Google took it down.
The blog Droid Life took a screen grab of the listing, which placed the price at $409.
The listing in Google Play also may confirm reports that Google plans
to sell the next Nexus directly, a la Apple. That was also the game
plan for the Nexus One in 2010, but Google eventually pulled the plug on that effort because of lack of demand for the $529 model.Though the report lists Jelly Bean as “Android 4.1,” other rumors
have said that’s the code-name for Android 5.0. Google is said to be switching strategies
for Jelly Bean, allowing multiple manufacturers early access to the OS.
Previously, Google had partnered with a single manufacturer to provide a
“reference” for other models.
