I was under the impression that Ice Cream Sandwich will require user to enter the credit card and associate it with their gmail account to activate the device? Is that true? I remember reading something about this.


That … seems stupid? And I don’t really think that can be true.

I don’t even have a credit card (like many Europeans I only have a bank card) and I’m also not enthusiastic about giving my payment information for just using something or even just looking around.


I found the article that I was referring too. It's not required but there will be prompt for it.
