You’ll never be without an Internet connection in U.K. towns and cities in the future, thanks to Wi-Fi-emitting sidewalks.

Chesham in Buckinghamshire has become the first town to deliver Wi-Fi at speeds of up to 166 Mbps, seven times the average broadband speed in the U.K., through “Smart Pavements” courtesy of broadband provider Virgin Media.

Samsung’s Galaxy Nexus will celebrate its fourth birthday this month with an Android 6.0 Marshmallow ROM.

The same developer who successfully ported Lollipop to the device has been working his magic on Marshmallow, and although there is still a lot of work to be done, users can download and install an early ROM now to get a taste of Google’s latest software.

You don’t need to buy a Nexus to get your hands on Marshmallow. If you own an LG G4, then you can expect Android 6.0 to begin rolling out to your existing device starting next week.

Samsung still hasn’t reversed its decision not to sell the Galaxy Note 5 in Europe, but new reports claim that will finally change in January, five months after the flagship phablet made its debut in the U.S.

It’s probably best you don’t get your hopes up just yet, however.
