In case you’ve been too engrossed in the Olympics to realize what day it is, let me remind you: It’s Sunday! That’s right, and while we won’t be giving out any medals, we will have some cool Android swag for you to win. Last week we were giving away 5 sets of NFC tags from TagsForDroid.com and today we’re going to announce the lucky winners, 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!

Every now and then, Google takes a second (or third) look at some of their projects to determine whether or not they’re worth the effort. Some projects are given the okay to continue, while others, well… they’re not so lucky. Google’s latest fatality is its much neglected podcast player, Google Listen.

A Samsung spokesman has already confirmed the Galaxy Note 2 (not an official name) unveiling on August 29th, but what about Samsung’s August 15th event in NYC? Well, there’s only a couple possibilities, but judging by the recent shipment that hit Negri Electronics, and the image on Samsung’s event invitation, I’d say it’s safe to say Samsung will be announcing the Galaxy Note 10.1.

Yes, that is a semi-sarcastic title. However, it’s still true. I’ve already professed my animosity towards exlusives like this, but it is what it is. The good news? Those rocking an Xperia device can download and play the popular console add-on Call of Duty: Black Ops Zombies all by themselves for 30 days. After that, it’s open season on the undead.
