Shin Jong-kyun, the president of Samsung’s information technology and mobile communication division, was proud to announce that the Galaxy S III has surpassed 10 million devices sold (globally) in just under two months.

The Kindle Fire was the best thing to happen to the tablet market in my opinion, and if Amazon where to simply close the book on their tablet ambitions after the Fire, it would just be silly.

Not everyone cares for an alphabetically organized App Drawer (especially if you often use an app that starts with the letter Z). You could, of course, always organize your apps the way you’d like on your homescreens, but if you’re like me, you enjoy having a clutter free homescreen to show off your brilliant wallpaper.
