Will Android Jelly Bean Be Coming to Your Device?

Will the exciting announcement of the Android's update to it's operating system Jelly Bean (4.1), I had to go out and find out if my devices were going to update to it...  Luckily for me, I think I am going to be rather good according to this site:

FYI, my devices are the Motorola Xoom and the Samsung Galaxy S III - didn't even bother looking up for my Samsung Droid Charge as that never even received Ice Cream Sandwich :)

I find this especially interesting as this could be an awesome layout for someone who only has one hand.

How soon do you think it will take for someone to make an app like this for iOS and/or Android?
