Samsung Galaxy Nexus is finally official, comes in November, 2011 (tech news update)

Finally, the news the whole Android community has been waiting for has arrived! Samsung and Google announced in their Unpacked event in Hong Kong the Samsung Galaxy Nexus.

It's been a heavy rumor period for the device, as the Galaxy Nexus leaked on a few occasions and most of what Samsung just announced isn't a particular surprise, but, at least it is now official! The device is the first one of many more to come to run the newest version of the Android OS - Ice Cream Sandwich.

It is also the every first smartphone with an HD super AMOLED display, measuring at 4.65 inches boasting the resolution of 720x1280. The display is slightly curved, just like the Nexus S is, and now features a super quick response time of just 0.01ms.

Following the Honeycomb approach, the Galaxy Nexus lacks hardware control buttons in favor of virtual software ones, which are located on the bottom of the screen.

As we told you earlier today, under the hood the Galaxy Nexus is powered by the TI OMAP 4460 platform, boasting a 1.2GHz dual-core Cortex A9-based processor and 1GB of RAM. At the back the device packs a 5MP camera capable of shooting 1080p video, while at the front, there's the usual 1.3MP camera for video chatting. With Ice Cream Sandwich, this snapper can take and automatically stitch shots to make a panorama, shoot a time-lapse video and zoom while recording.

The Galaxy Nexus is fully future-proofed with LTE and NFC support on board, which should serve Google's Wallet project pretty well. Multiple carriers will be offering the smartphone in GSM HSPA version as well. The battery is now confirmed to be 1750mAh, which should keep it running for a day or two. The device will be offered in 16 or 32GB flavors expandable via a microSD card slot.

The hardware of the Galaxy Nexus is quite unique. On the bottom of the device has a hidden notification area, which glows with a green dot when you get a new email, message or miss a call. The back cover is also covered with a specially designed material called "Hyper Skin" to protect it from slipping.

HTC releases official statement regarding Ice Cream Sandwich

Following the launch of Google's Galaxy Nexus and Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich, HTC released an official statement regarding the latter.

The statement talks about HTC reviewing Ice Cream Sandwich features and functionality to determine their upgrade path. Despite the improvements in Ice Cream Sandwich, however, HTC is determined to not let go of their Sense UI and will be working to combine both of them, taking into account the hardware of the device. From what we can tell, you can expect a Sensed-up version of Ice Cream Sandwich on their recently released phones such as the Sensation and EVO 4G but we wouldn't bet too heavily on slightly older phones like the Incredible S and Desire S getting the update.

You can read the full statement from HTC below.

We are excited about the latest update for Android, Ice Cream Sandwich, and are currently reviewing its features and functionality to determine our upgrade plans. Our goal for Android updates is to give every customer an improved user experience, which means balancing each phone's unique hardware, HTC Sense experience and the Android kernel. While our goal is to upgrade as many of our recent devices as possible, we are committed to maintaining every phone's performance and usability first. Please stay tuned for more updates on specific device upgrade plans.

Gaddafi killed after being captured – doctor

See the full gallery on Posterous

21 October, 2011:  Libya’s ousted leader Muammar Gaddafi was killed after fighters captured him near his hometown of Sirte, Al Arabia TV said on Friday, citing the doctor who performed DNA tests on Gaddafi’s body.
The Libyan Transitional Council has confirmed the death of the dictator; however, details of the capture and the killing are still not completely clear and are expected to be clarified later.
On the one hand, amateur mobile phone footage on the internet appears to show him as captured in a bloodied state but still alive before the news of his death broke out. On the other hand, Al-Jazeera TV has shown footage of a man resembling the former Libyan leader lying dead or severely wounded.
Rupert Colville, the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, called for an investigation into Gaddafi’s death. “The two videos ... taken together are very disturbing,” he added.
Gaddafi was hit by a bullet in the head and another in the stomach, Dr. Ibrahim Tika told Al Arabiya. The leader’s son Motassim was shot in the upper part of his chest at short range and died after his father.
Gaddafi’s burial, which under Islamic tradition should take place as soon as possible, has been delayed for several days until arrangements for a location are finalized, Oil Minister of Libya's interim government Ali Tarhouni told Reuters on Friday.
An international commission of inquiry, launched by the UN Human Rights Council, is already investigating killings, torture and other crimes in Libya. Colville said he expected the mission to look into the circumstances of Gaddafi’s death as well.
NATO is expected to declare an end to its Libya campaign in the coming hours.
