UPDATE: And our Google Nexus S review is now live! Check it out, plus the extra photos.
The Google Nexus S is here! The holy grail of Google phones has just landed here on the Electricpig gadget test bench and we’re about to put it through its paces. Before we do though, check out the very first Android 2.3 phone coming out of its box right now in our gallery.

The face off between the Google Nexus S and the HTC Desire HD is a battle of the epic Android phones. Ahead of our full review of the Google Nexus S we’re putting the HTC Desire HD and the Google Nexus S stat to stat, pitting the two against each other to see if Google can beat what’s arguably the best Android on the market right now, the HTC Desire HD.
Now we’ve had an eyeful of Chrome OS, and with Android 3.0 promising to be just round the corner on the other side of new year, it’s starting to look like Google might be getting into competition with itself. If both Chrome OS and Android 3.0 end up on tablets, which one would you rather be using? Click and tell!
Remember last month when the Beatles back catalogue finally arrived on iTunes, after years of wrangling? Well, thanks to the Daily Mail we now know who to give thanks to. That’s right, Heather Mills. The lady said very convincingly, “iTunes? I organised it all with Steve Jobs’,” she said. “But there’s no way I am going back to court for more money. It was all settled at the time and that’s it.” Right. We’re utterly baffled by this pronunciation here at Electricpig towers, particularly since Mills wasn’t mentioned in the press release, not even by Steve Jobs. Odd, that.
UPDATE: We have a winner. A hearty congratulations to Kevin Barclay. A LittleBigPlanet Sackboy T-shirt will soon be winging its way to you.
We’ve snagged a new LittleBigPlanet Sackboy T-shirt to give away to one lucky reader. All you have to do is answer one simple question by leaving a comment. The first to answer correctly wins. That’s it.
Yesterday we mooted that Chrome OS could kill Microsoft Windows, by forcing a paradigm shift in the way we interact with operating systems. We asked you whether you thought Chrome OS could kill Windows, or force it to undertake changes that leave it largely unrecogniseable to its current state. 69 per cent of you had faith in the dominance of Microsoft, and said no, Windows would not be killed by Chrome OS, but 21 per cent of you said yes, Chrome OS could flatten Windows.
