News@8pm: iPhone 4G launch and LG Optimus 2X priced

 

Big news of the day came in the form of Apple's Verizon iPhone announcement. If you were hoping for a 4G LTE network version of the mega mobile, then keep on dreaming, as it failed to materialise at the press conference in New York this afternoon. Instead, the current iPhone 4 model will be stocked. Microsoft also launched an investigation today, looking into mysterious goings on with a number of Windows 7 OS touting handsets facing issues of vanishing data.

Spam levels are set to increase as serial spammers come back from their Christmas 'leave'. Online security firms Symantec and Netwitness worker, Alex Cox told BBC news "As best we can tell, they took a holiday. The people running Rustock are running a business - albeit an illegitimate one - so maybe they needed time off too." Thanks Alex. However, in other news, T-Mobile has advised users to download big files at their homes and not on their phones. This comes after a statement on their website relating to the fair use policy, entitling everyone to use the internet. However using the internet, in T-Mobile mind is looking at websites and checking e-mails. No BBC iPlayer for T-Mobile customers then.

 

South Korean Tech giants, LG have today unveiled the worlds first Dual core handset, supported by Android. The phone will go on sale in the UK on Feb 21st priced £500, ouch.
