A new device slightly larger than a smartphone has appeared with HTC branding on it this month that looks to be a competitor for the Samsung Galaxy Note in the very near future. This device has a red border and red rim around its back-facing camera lens, suggesting this device will be working with either the EVO line or Verizon's DROID offerings. This device also brings on a three-button setup on the front, suggesting that it'll be released with at least Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich and will likely be part of HTC's extended One lineup.

We've officially entered the final week in August, which means that the autumn months are right around the corner. Today, Apple delivered a list of 8 Samsung devices it would like to see banned in the US, and the Galaxy S II - which is still a popular phone for Samsung - attracted the lion's share of the attention. We caught a glimpse of the amended verdict form from the trial today, and Google made a rather interesting statement on the outcome of the suit. Unsurprisingly, Samsung's stock took a stumble today, while the stock of some other phone manufacturers went up.

Friday is here once again folks, and what a Friday it was. What started out as a relatively slow news day became very exciting later on, as the jury deciding the Apple and Samsung case delivered their verdict after only three days of deliberation. The verdict? Let's just say that Apple's lawyers will be having a celebration tonight. Samsung was found guilty of multiple patent infringements, and a lot of that patent infringement was found willful by the jury. To make matters worse for Samsung, the jury found that it wasn't owed any damages by Apple. Needless to say, we think there will be an appeal.

Samsung Galaxy Stellar launching at Verizon for $99
It would appear that a new Samsung smartphone will be getting a Verizon release, but sadly, details are still mysteriously slim. The Samsung Galaxy Stellar is its name, and it comes sporting a $99 price tag, which suggests that this is a low-end piece of equipment. Of course, we can't confirm that, because Samsung hasn't talked specs yet, and for that matter, the company hasn't even announced the phone yet.
