When Microsoft pushed out its pre-update, err, update they didn't expect any issues. Granted it was the first update to the fledgling mobile OS but what could possibly go wrong? Turns out, quite a bit. Reports of users having their handsets 'bricked' during the update are rife across the web, with Samsung's hardware apparently suffering more than others.

Already a key part of any Android user's arsenal, DoubleTwist's AirSync has provided wireless media syncing for Google's mobile platform for a good while now, plugging a gap created by not anchoring the platform to a desktop client as Apple did with iOS and iTunes. Now, according to TNW, DoubleTwist has upped the ante by adding AirTwist, ala iOS’ AirPlay, making Android devices act as a standalone media server.
