Who’s ready for a giveaway? Last week we were giving away an Android neon light and today we’re going to announce the lucky winner, as well as give you a chance to win some new swag.

We simply love wallpapers. They’re one of the first changes we make to our Android devices and often represent our moods, interests, or wicked alter egos. They’re as unique as the individuals who use them and while some people pick one and stick with it, others change them more often than a teenager’s Facebook status. Each day we’re going to feature a free wallpaper for you to download and use on your Android device. Depending on your device, you may want to use your favorite photo editing software to resize the image for a better fit. Once that’s done, apply and enjoy. Your homescreen can thank us later. Cheers!

By now you might have heard about Samsung’s monumental loss in court. If not, let me give you the score: 1,051,855,0001,049,343,540 to 0. The first number, you know, the one with all the commas; that one goes to Apple. Samsung — NO SOUP FOR YOU! The jury handed down a verdict today in the case of Apple vs. Samsung, and let’s just say Samsung was on the wrong end of it. Samsung was found guilty of willfully infringing on a majority of Apple’s various software and hardware design patents, as well as trade-dress dilution, and thus ordered to pay damages in the amount of $1,051,855,000$1,049,343,540 (WOWZERS).

We’ve just gotten word that the jury in the Apple vs. Samsung case has reached a verdict. We’re all on the edge of our seats, waiting to hear what they have to say. As soon we hear the verdict, we’ll let you know.

[Update] The jury has basically ruled in favor of Apple. They’re running through all the patents, but it’s safe to say Samsung lost. There you go folks, who’s ready for the sequel?

It appears Apple’s arrogance is getting in the way of protecting its users from a long standing SMS exploit that could allow potential hackers to spoof a reply-to number, causing the recipient to think he/she is replying to a legitimate contact, when in reality, their information is being sent to the hackers designated address. As you can imagine, this is quite troublesome, yet Apple has brushed it away despite numerous pleas made by a well known iOS hacker (pod2g):
