Today is a sad day in the world of technology. Founder, Chairman and former CEO of Apple has passed away aged 56 after suffering from pancreatic cancer.    Jobs was renowned for being passionate about creating technology that would change the world.

Jobs did this time and time again, firstly with the iMac then the iPod and more recently the iPhone and iPad. 

Well Apple may have drawn the headlines yesterday, but today Samsung revealed that they're getting ready for a BIG announcement too. They've released this interesting teaser: Titled "Unpacked" and due to be announced on the 10th November, Samsung are undoubtedly releasing, in partnership with Google, the new Nexus Prime.

Oh and sorry we've not been saying much on here, but as always we're chatting away on twitter (@sulfurcode)! Anyway, we thought it might be worth briefly mentioning the imminent release of the next generation of iPhone which is due to be announced tomorrow (October 4th 2011) at 6pm BST.
