Rumor from Across the Pond: iPhone Nano for Christmas

Start writing that letter to Santa, or at least to his people.

Hands on with the Samsung Instinct

If you’re one of the 37,467,199 people sick of hearing the media talk about “iPhone killers”, then take heart in the fact that there’s one less such device that’ll be talked about in the press from this point forward.
