Just a couple of days ago we could take a look at the LG Optimus LTE (aka LG LU6200) which was pictured in the wild and now we have a couple of more images starring the Korean manufacturer's LTE powerhouse. The phone is reportedly operating on Android 2.3.5 Gingerbread but the main selling point of the phone is its 4.5-inch AH-IPS LCD with HD resolution (720 x 1280), along with LTE support. The processor is not to be overlooked either as it clocks at 1.5GHz on two cores, being a Snapdragon chip. The phone is expected to hit Korea this month and we can't wait for LG to make it available in the U.S. and internationally.

The HTC Runnymede will launch as the HTC Sensation XL, according to a reliable source, and not the HTC Bass, as previously rumored. It will allegedly come in two Beats Audio-themed bundles: one with iBeats earbuds and another, special, edition containing over-the-ear Beats Solo headphones. 
The Google Nexus One managed to stay up-to-date all this time mainly because Mountain View managed to keep its promise and continuously push out refreshes as they were stable. The phone recently got its Android 2.3.6 update. 
Microsoft finally threw all you Windows Phone users, waiting for news about when to expect your Mango updates, a bone this week, officially confirming that Mango would get here "in the next week or two". For information on when progress was being made for individual carriers, the company refers users to its "Where's my phone update?" page, but that's yet to reflect the distribution of Mango. For more detail, we'll have to turn to the manufacturers themselves. Dell, for one, spilled the beans on its update plans earlier today. 
Samsung has already unveiled the Galaxy Note at the beginning of this month in Berlin, with the occasion of IFA but the company is preparing for another Unpacked event, this time at October's CTIA Enterprise and Applications show in San Diego. 
The Samsung Galaxy S II is still THE Android phone of the moment (at least until one of those HD screen-enabled beasts are released) and the manufacturer is trying to maintain the phone up to date as much as possible. 
The Runnymede is expected to have a 1.5GHz single-core processor, 4.7-inch WVGA display, 768MB of RAM, 16GB of storage, eight-megapixel main camera, and 1.3-megapixel webcam. Will probably run Android 2.3.4 Gingerbread with HTC Sense 3.5 on top of it and it is rumored to be launched as the HTC Bass. 
Reports continue to come in on the dark side of the Android platform: malware and vulnerabilities. According to The Register, two serious Android security vulnerabilities were reported more than a month ago and are still unpatched. 
The LG LU6200 we've been hearing about last week, with its 1.5GHz dual-core Snapdragon CPU and LTE support has been spotted in the wild, showing off that 720p HD display it has. 
Apple is going to announce the iPhone 5 on October 4 as its flagship phone, according to recent rumors, most probably together with the iPhone 4S or 4+ refresh of the current model, with bumped specs. There have already been online sightings of iPhone 5 and 4S cases, but this time they show up in AT&T reseller inventories. 
According to a DigiTimes report, the iPhone 5 will be delayed due to some defects in the touch panels manufactured by Wintek. According to previous reports, Apple is supposed to launch its next flagship on October 4 but initial shipment targets might not be met due to the panel issues. 
The Samsung-made AT&T Infuse 4G was supposed to get its Gingerbread treat since mid-August but so far there was only word of a maintenance update -- rumored to be a pre-Gingerbread update. 
In today?s show we begin by talking about the recent confirmation we received from the Windows Phone blog regarding Mango and it?s release date within either next week or the following. We also go through the Samsung Focus S and how it already received FCC approval. We talk about the reasons why Windows Phone 7 doesn?t support dual-core processors, and why that?s still not an issue any of us should worry about. We breeze through Windows 8 and how it seems to support more than the Metro UI with a phone call feature, and details on when we might get the WhatsApp messenger many of us have been waiting for. We end the Good section by going through some recent awards that Windows Phone 7 has received thanks to its innovative design. 
When is Nokia's Sea Ray WP7 smartphone going to finally arrive? We looked into some of the latest news and rumors surrounding the handset's release earlier this month, and at that point it seemed like we'd see a limited European release before the end of the year, with wider global distribution following in 2012. Now we've run across a new rumor that says we might have to wait until 2012 for even the European release of the Sea Ray. 
Our friends over at Clove just updated on the Samsung Galaxy Note availability: it looks like the smartphone (if that's what you call this beast) will be in stock late November. The price is not yet confirmed but is believed to be around the pre-order advertised price of ?500 ($780) unlocked. 
Japan got its first taste of Mango with the release of the Fujitsu-Toshiba IS12T, but how will Mango be revealed to the rest of the world's markets? Instead of that sort of single-device launch, will we see a glut of WP7.5 handsets released at once? It may not be the grand launch we were hoping for, but it looks like Europe has actually gotten its first Mango device already, and it's definitely not what we expected. 
Our understanding of the HTC Vigor had been shaping-up nicely as of last week; rumors, information gleamed from its FCC paperwork, and the press shots we uncovered were starting to paint a complete picture of the handset. Then we were introduced to a purportedly leaked Verizon screenshot, indicating that the phone would become the Droid Incredible HD, instead, and cast doubt on the phone's supposedly-720p display. Today a host of media files for the Vigor has been distributed online, and there are a few tidbits inside that may help clear up this confusion. 
It's been quite a journey for the long anticipated WhatsApp Windows Phone client, from the early day rumors, leaks and hints (a tweet about mangos, a job posting and more recently, a teaser image) to a private beta in the Marketplace more recently.
