Want an iPhone but the 4S doesn't really float your boat with last night's spec bump? How about an 8GB iPhone 4 on-the-cheap?
Gizmodo and their new UK branch are still excluded from Apple events because of a certain "kerfuffle" last year, which meant we weren't able to bring you hands-on photos and video. Not to worry though, as our new UK sibling TechRadar still graces Apple's good books. For now, anyway.
Nerves get to you when you have to follow on from the master of the reality distortion field. A potentially lacklustre product to launch under the colossal global attention only Apple manages to generate. Tim Cook certainly had his hands full. [Funny or Die]
After yesterday's first leaked pic of the Samsung-made Google Nexus Prime phone, we now know it has a 4.6-inch Super AMOLED screen. But what does it look like on film? Err...
Solar-powered chargers make me feel like I'm doing something nice for the Earth. Too bad I never use the damn things because positioning them for optimal Sun-catching is a pain in the ass. The Ray solar charger's suction cup action solves that problem.
Microsoft is supposedly ready to release an Xbox 360 upgrade that'll let you watch TV on your Xbox 360, according to a report from AllThingsD.

From what I could tell reading along, Apple's iPhone 4S keynote looked REAL boring. But hey, if you want to see for yourself, by all means feel free to watch it here. [The Loop; Image Credit: GDGT]
The sole remaining reason to use a BlackBerry is BBM—and now, the iPhone's got its own version. It's better than texting, but it comes with some potentially terrifying social vortexes to navigate. Here's how to own iMessage, stress-free.
Straight up: I'm a little disappointed with the new iPhone 4S. I was hoping for more. My expectations were higher. I wanted something extra special, largely because I've been waiting for it for So. Very. Long.
Now that the iPhone 4S has been shown off to borderline middling interest, Apple is quietly rolling out this little dongle that allows you to charge your phone via Micro USB. Too bad it's only in Europe (for now?).
The bounty was plentiful, though there were a few pieces of rotten fruit inside, according to our cynical commenters. Still, if you want to catch up on all the announcements, here they are in one handy list:
It's been over four years since the first iPhone came out, and a lot has changed, from the screen to the CPU to the form factor. How drastic has this change been over the years? Here's a look at the iPhone's evolution, from 1 to 4S.
