The tablet specific version didn't. The phones and tablets running 2.x did. Fragmentation, etc.
Honeycomb is generally considered a step-child of Android. The support for is just catching up in the last month or two.
Google's supposedly going all iOS and making a single platform for everything with Ice Cream Sammich.
I don't know if it's the OS or the execution, but I much prefer 2.3 on my Samsung phone than I do 3.2 on my Asus tablet.

so yeah, maybe Android wont be such an unsuable mess anymore 
if I can find an ICS phone that isnt as big as a damn tablet maybe that will be my next phone.
still not terribly excited about carrying around a google advertising delivery and data collection device though

Yeah I'm not 100% sold on these phones with really big screens. Supposedly the Galaxy Nexus just downsized the bezel to get more screen real estate rather than increasing the size of the entire phone. Don't know if that's a good idea or not.

I was pretty worried about screen size coming from a Blackberry. Turns out my S2 is actually less obtrusive in my pocket than my Bold ever was... I'm guessing due to the (lack of) thickness. There's definitely a point where the screen is gonna be too large, but 4.3 isn't it.

My Epic Touch 4G (GS2) has a freakin huge screen but yea, same thing...it's not nearly as intrusive even with an aftermarket case than my EVO was without a case.

I'd say Mac OS X and iOS releases get a similar level of hype.

I don't think any release of Android has ever said it's gonna fix everything that's wrong. Not even ICS. It's just supposed to make a single platform for everything.
The fanbois might have said that, but fanbois for every platform say that.

ive made a list of current and upcoming phone sizes for my comparison shopping. size and pocketability is a huge factor for me.
as you can see the trend is getting bigger and bigger. the galaxy nexus and droid razr dwarf the already big evo and 4.3" class phones. its too badapple stuck with the same outdated form factor on the iphone. looks like ill be looking at the nokia 800, after i spend some more time with win phone
iphone 4 (reference)
4.5 x 2.31 x .37
115 x 59 x 9.3
htc evo 4g 4.3" (reference)

Palm Pre (reference)
100 x 60 x 17
Galaxy Nexus 4.65" 1280x720 1.2 dual
