I guess you can say that smartphones are pretty much similar in nature to movies, in the sense where sequels are always in store if a particular device does well in the market. Case in point, LG has had their moments in the mid-range and entry level markets with the LG Optimus L3, and I guess those smartphones performed well enough to warrant

Samsung’s exciting GALAXY S 4 has a pretty big following, but it looks like the smaller sibling might too.

There is always a first time for everything, and this week marks the first time that Nokia actually gave up their top position in their home market of Finland to Samsung in terms of phone market share. Research firm IDC reported that sometime in the first quarter of this year, Nokia actually managed to move 196,000 devices compared to Samsung’s 211,000 units that were sold.

Gosse was figuring out just where hundreds of MB of data was literally disappearing to each time app on the Windows Phone platform was used.
