iPhone 5 Will Not Feature Rumored 4.6-inch Display: Reasons Why

iPhone 4S
Much of iPhone 5 rumored specs are predictions based upon the new iPad features, smartphone rivalry/competition and Apple's behavior.

Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G vs HTC Amaze 4G: T-Mobile Adds More Android Power

Free Samsung Nexus S 4G on Sprint Until the End of March

Sprint is giving away the Samsung Nexus S 4G in a Web only deal until the end of March, possibly to clear the way for the new Samsung Galaxy Nexus and LG Viper.
