Hidden Easter egg in the Android Ice Cream Sandwich operating system

Rocket launcher!

Google is the king (or queen) of sneaking in little Easter eggs into their products, with the latest find in the Android smartphone’s most recent operating system, called Ice Cream Sandwich.

The new launcher as demonstrated above was discovered, giving your phone that ultra geeky Star Wars feel as apps fly out at you and you can slow them down with a tap or open an app.

We’re not sure how useful this is in, fact, it pretty much isn’t, but it’s a fun little Easter egg you can use to fascinate your equally geeky friends.
