A deal where no money is changing hands, but a whole lot of advertising is...

Four fingers is just right?

Bit surprised as for ages its thought to be Keylime Pie, but i guess a bit of advertising money is ok. Not like it actually matters to the end result what we call it.

More intreasted in the device it will debut on.

Keylime pie > Kitkats

Not that I don't like a Kitkat though but a good keylime pie is fucking fantastic.

Such a pity that it's too late for an Android Jaffa Cake version

Tax Dodgers unite with with Baby Killers would have made a better headline.

The BBC article looks like a spoof but it's not April the first.

Even worse, the US version of the KitKat is made by Hershey's, so it's like eating four wafers covered in brown puke.

I like the "There's a Kitkat for that" in the video...

Cool idea, but I imagine most will call it by its version number still.

Android 4.4.

KitKats taste fucking awful in Europe compared to the UK ones.

Aren't Nestle like the worst company ever or something? Right up there with Shell and Foxconn.

They have 'improved' somewhat, especially in the cocoa business, but on a whole?

... not much unfortunately.

My nexus 4 just updated to 4.4. Wasn't even aware that it had downloaded the 212mb update.

Better or worse?... I've no idea.

Do you have to slide your thumb down the screen to unlock?

My Nexus has just updated to 4.4. I was so excited I just HAD to tell someone.

Left right up or down on my phone to unlock so that's not changed. There is a small camera icon at the bottom of the screen now that can be swiped onto screen
