Now bathed in white as opposed to the oft-seen Ch... Read Full Story

It looks to be an amicable split between O2 and the iPhone, with T3 reporting that owners of Apple’s device on the network will be allowed to unlock their devices and roam freely at the end of their contract.
This puts paid to rumours that O2 would shackle iPhone lovers looking to switch, as pay monthly customers will be permitted to leave at no cost, whilst prepay folk will be required to cough up a mere £15 upon departure.
O2’s CEO Matthew Key was upbeat in the face of a potenti... Read Full Story
LG’s latest handset, the GD510 ‘POP’ as it’s being called, has just landed on our desk…

LG are also keen to add that the GD150 has been built with the environment firmly in mind – it’s constructed largely from hazard-free materials, the battery can be upgraded to a solar p... Read Full Story
