Although most media players cater to the common audio and video formats, they do often struggle to manage some of the more obscure extensions. As such, there are many, many third-party media playing apps available which claim to handle essentially all formats, and today's offering, RockPlayer for Android, follows the same motif.
While some Android devices are rooted relatively quickly by those in the know within the modding and development community, some smartphones and tablets can take what seems like an age.
The story that Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak was planning to take his place in-line and buy a Nokia Lumia 900 was a great one for headline writers. What better than a co-founder of the company behind the iPhone queuing up to buy one of the competition? Well, how about the man himself waxing lyrical about said competition?
A new Android app promises to bring a little bit of Ice Cream Sandwich to those not actually using the latest version of Android. By bringing the Android 4.0 version of the Gallery app to all smartphones, the app offers a chink of light for those who may never get Android 4.0 on their own handsets.
Although Nokia have been going through a rather difficult spell in recent years, they have still been managing to cling on to the top spot when it comes to global sales of cellphones - until now.

Two of the best things in life, in my opinion, have to be technology and sports. Both have immense power in this world, with technology making the world a much smaller place by making it easy to stay connected with people from all over the globe and sports having such a powerful ability to unite nations and bring people together through their love of the game.
We find this very difficult to believe, and very easy to believe in equal measures, so let's just get this out of the way and see what everyone else thinks.

It has been a day or so since the smartphone loving world was treated to any gossip surrounding Samsung's latest addition to the Galaxy range of devices, the Galaxy S III. The much anticipated device has so far managed to surround itself with growing mystery, leaving Samsung and Android fans chomping at the bit to get their hands on it.
Talk of a potential release for N.O.V.A 3 began pretty much as soon as the second installment hit smartphones and tablets, but there has been little in the way of concrete news regarding the hotly anticipated shooter.
While the announcement for the next Galaxy smartphone - informally referred to as the Galaxy S III - isn't due until May 3rd as we've previously reported, Samsung has already dropped some news regarding the processor that will power the upcoming flagship Android smartphone. By the looks of things, this processor definitely seems to be worth getting your Android-mascot branded mascot in a twist over. It's called the Exynos 4 Quad, is clocked at 1.4GHz, and is based on the ARM Cortex A9 mobile processor. This processor seems to be quite inline with some earlier rumors, apart from the branding; rumors suggested that the upcoming quad-core CPU will sport the Exynos 5 branding.
