Samsung’s Galaxy S3 Android smartphone will be released in the U.S. on June 1 through Amazon for $800, and it’s available today in Dubai. Reports are coming in from Dubai that the international version of the Samsung Galaxy S3 , known as the GT-i9300, is being sold today, although it’s unknown whether Dubai retailers have broken the street date of the phone or their release is simply early
Hutchison Whampoa, the parent company of Three UK, has dismissed reports it plans to take its ball and go home if the network is denied 4G spectrum in the forthcoming auction .

The world isn’t going to end, but it may feel that way this week to any Windows Phone users still running a version older than 7.5 Mango .

After several days of waiting, I finally received this brief notice in response to my queries about ESPN’s obvious radio app blunder : ESPN is now offering six months of complimentary Insider access ($20 value) for those ESPN Radio app users who have written to express concerns over the pricing. For fans who are already Insiders, or are not interested in using the Insider services and benefits, we are providing an ESPNShop discount code for 20% off an ESPNShop purchase. While this isn’t a bad deal for fans of the network (monetarily, it’s pretty generous for those actually interested in buying an Insider subscription or some ESPNShop gear), it probably won’t mean a thing to the vast majority of ESPN Radio users who have been ripped off. With 1,071 one-star ratings , anything short of an amended rerelease to fully support all past paid features is totally the wrong track to take.
