Another quad-core Android device has decided to show up today, this time coming from LG. Currently we know of two quad-core devices in the works, one of which is from Fujitsu which we played with at CES 2012, and the second rumored to be from HTC. Now we have a third which is coming from LG called the X3.

We haven't done an "Awesomeness" article in some time but today seems like a good day to revisit the series with what can only be described as something that is rather cool. While a lot of people don't really mess around with a Stylus these days, this little item may change your mind, if for no other reason for novelty's sake.

Apple has won another patent to add to their massive collection of broad general patents that should never be issued in the first place. Of course this patent takes direct aim at Android considering what this new one covers in terms of smartphone functionality.

You may not remember an article we wrote, back near the beginning of December, about HTC being sued by Apple which could result in HTC Android devices being banned here in the USA. Well it seems that Apple has actually won that suit and HTC could now be facing that possible ban starting next year.

We haven't covered the Galaxy Nexus and the plethora of rumors and released dates surrounding it because we would much rather just tell you that it's released then get your hopes up every other day. So with that said, the Galaxy Nexus is now available on the Verizon Network and we are already seeing online retailers dropping the prices to attract customers.

You may or may not remember back in August when Mojang put up a limited edition Minecraft themed Xperia Play for sale on eBay. By the time the auction was over it had sold for a ridiculous $1525 although all the proceeds were given to a charity of Mojang's choice. Well another one has appeared on eBay.

We don't usually post about device sales except on the rare occasion when it's something big like the pre-orders of the Asus Transformer Prime quad-core tablet going live yesterday. Today Amazon is having a pre-Cyber Monday sale on all their smart phones which will only cost you a single penny.

Qualcomm seems to be rather busy this morning as they have dropped a few announcements today regarding a plethora of new chipsets for the S4 and S1 line-up, a few games to showcase those chipsets and an app called GameCommand which will be used to help people find this Qualcomm optimized games.

Today we get to post some serious awesomeness and it's Android related at the same time! Google is known for putting little Easter Eggs in each OS that comes out for Android and it seems Ice Cream Sandwich was hit as well. This time though it's a pair of Nyan Cat themed Android goodness.

Sony Ericsson has posted a blog post confirming that the Xperia Play, along with other Xperia devices, will get an Ice Cream Sandwich (Android 4.0) update when it is ready to roll out for those devices. Currenty Sony Ericsson is working on merging Ice Cream Sandwich with their "Xperia experience".
