Here we go again. After Google announced the GALAXY S 4 Google Edition at their developer event last week, rumors have been flying through the wires daily about HTC doing the same. So far we've not heard anything concrete to back up these rumors, even HTC flat out denied the possibility. However, the original leakster of the Galaxy S 4 Google Edition is now saying a "Senseless" HTC One is coming too.

There has been a handful of Huawei P6 leaks in recent history, most of which were touching on the thinness of the handset. One of the more recent leaks arrived earlier this month and included a few images of the device. These were in-the-wild style images and while not perfectly crisp and clear, they were enough to provide a decent look. That being said, it looks like the official press renders have since surfaced.

When the folks at Mountain View released Google Glass to developers it was quickly discovered that the wearable computing glasses were extremely easy to hack. This wasn't by accident, and Google made no efforts in securing Glass, especially since they are only for developers, for now. Fast forward to today and we have an unofficial ClockworkMod Recovery up and running on Glass.

We had seen the teasers, however as of today, Fast & Furious 6: The Game has officially arrived for Android. The game is available for free and currently sitting in the Google Play Store. We know there was a fair amount of people waiting for this release, but we suspect there may be a bit of disappointment. That is not to say you shouldn't test the game yourself, but our experience was not all that great and to make sure we were not alone in those thoughts, we checked the current Play Store comments.

Verizon HTC One “will be announced later”

By Robert Nelson
on 23 May, 2013

We were expecting Verizon Wireless to announce the HTC One during their CTIA 'special event' yesterday and instead got to watch Jennifer Lopez announce Viva Movil. Given the steady stream of Verizon HTC One rumors that we have been seeing, it almost feels like stating the obvious when we say the Viva Movil announcement was a disappointment for some. That is not to say Viva Movil is a disappointment, but just that plenty of people seem to be waiting for a Verizon branded One.
