The SDK is not an OS. The SDK is released ahead a time so that developers can update their apps. Everything about this article is wrong as Jean-Baptiste Queru has already announced the source is coming as soon as the device is released and the OS is out.

> "Now that ICS is out" Wow. What has happened to Slashdot? ICS is not out. The first device, the Galaxy Nexus, doesn't get released until next month. And Google did announce ASOP would be released once it is released to the first ICS devices. Basically, everything posted was incorrect. Nice try though

Taking in money on this scale puts a different slant on the motives behind the Swedish filesharing site, and could open up the runners of the site to prosecution for profiting from copyright infringement.
