Samsung Galaxy Tab

The big news this week is the imminent launch of Samsung's Galaxy Tab, which some believe is the first serious contender to the iPad. This was followed by more bad news for Apple, as new figures show Google's Android giving iOS a serious run for its money.

The jailing of an IT admin for attempting to sell MI6 information was also popular, as was the latest BBC iPlayer redesign.

Google has been busy this week, updating its Android translation and Google TV services, announcing a stay of execution for its Google Wave code, and talking up a new technology called Instant search.

Meanwhile, BT has extended its fibre-to-the-cabinet plans, and Nokia is to launch the E7 and N8 smartphones next week. Our review of Amazon's Kindle 3 was also popular.
