The big hit with V3.co.uk readers this week was our look at the top 10 technology merger mistakes of all time, followed by a warning from Kaspersky about new instant messaging worms, and the unveiling of the Samsung Galaxy Tab.

Tablet PCs are certainly flavour of the month at the moment, and ViewSonic is the latest company to take on the iPad. Amazon, meanwhile, has released the latest version of the Kindle e-reader to much acclaim, and Nokia's C3 smartphone is generating a deal of interest.

Other popular stories included Virgin Media's apparent openness about its actual broadband speeds, the cracking of a quantum security system, and the predicted death of Flash.

And VMware's Paul Maritz has declared that IT as a service is the goal of virtualisation.
