You don't need permission from anyone. The 4.0.3 build of ICS is freely available for the GN, so if you want it, go get it.

But like... it won't screw around with anything, cellular plan wise?

It shouldn't I have been looking around for my Galaxy Gio over here from Samsung. Since I am running the gingerbread version. And I am looking for the major upgrade to ICS over here. Haven't found it yet over here for my cell for Virgin Mobile.

I'm running ICS on my T-Mobile G2. If an unofficial build can work on my old hardware, then the official build for the GN shouldn't have any problems. ;)
