The top story with V3.co.uk readers this week was the news that smartphones using Google's Android OS are outselling Apple's iPhone in the US, much to Steve Jobs's chagrin.

This was followed by our latest Top 10 rundown, which looked at the best science fiction writers. Plenty of readers were unhappy with our choices, so feel free to join the chorus of disapproval here.

Microsoft's Office 2010 launch was also popular this week, as was some seemingly dodgy research from Symantec about Linux servers, and the sudden resignation of Mozilla chief executive John Lilly.

The war of words between Apple and Adobe continued to escalate, this time with the co-founders of Adobe wading in with all sorts of vitriolic jibes at Steve Jobs.

Our reviews of Microsoft Office 2010 and the Apple iPad were also popular, as was the announcement of O2's data plans for the iPad.
