The smartphone industry is set to grow by 10 percent in 2016 with more than 1.5 billion phones sold (source), but only one of those sales is important to you. We help you choose your new smartphone, with our guide to the 20 best phones you can buy in the UK in 2016. Also see: Best new phones coming in 2016 and 2017.
When we review smartphones we take into account their build quality and design, ease of use, features, performance and value, although the latter isn't always such a big deal when it comes to a phone you are most likely to buy on a contract. Generally speaking a flagship phone will cost between £500- and £600, or between £40- and £50 per month on a contract. If you are buying SIM-free then you should also check out our best SIM-only deals.
Value becomes more important when you consider older-generation phones. For example, we still think the Samsung Galaxy S6 is better than many of the phones in this chart, especially when you consider that it's now available under £400 SIM-free. However, we move all older-generation smartphones to our best old phones chart, and you'll now find the Galaxy S7 and S7 edge sitting at the top of this best phones chart. We also have a best budget phones round-up if you're looking to minimise costs.
Latest entry: Samsung Galaxy Note 7.
Best phone 2016: Android vs iOS vs Windows
There are multiple mobile phone operating systems, but really only two worth talking about: Android and iOS. Windows phones account for around 1 percent of all phones sold, so it makes more sense to go with Android or an iPhone. If you do have your heart set on Windows, also see our list of the best Windows phones 2016. (Similarly, for purely Android choices see Best Android phones.)
The vast majority of phones available run the Android operating system, with Marshmallow the latest version. While Apple's iOS platform has a much lower market share, developers always release their apps on iOS so it has one of the best app stores you'll find. For more, see Android vs iPhone.
Also, for a more in-depth look at each OS see our Android Marshmallow review, iOS 10 review and Windows 10 Mobile review.
If you have an Android phone or and iPhone and want to move to the other type of phone, it's fair easy move your contacts and other data from one to the other. See How to move from Android to iPhone and How to move from iPhone to Android. What you can't move is paid-for apps, so keep this in mind if you're considering a change of platform.
Best phone 2016: why you should buy unlocked
An unlocked phone is one which is not tied to any particular mobile operator, such as Vodafone or EE. Buying unlocked usually means buying the phone outright without a SIM. The most important point is that an unlocked phone is almost always a better deal than buying a phone on contract. The only real exception to this are Apple's iPhones - because of their traditional popularity, operators do often subsidise the cost of buying an iPhone in order to lock you into a lucrative long-term deal. Generally speaking, however, if you can afford the upfront cost of the handset, you will pay less over the life of your phone by buying unlocked.
More importantly, you are not locked in. If you want a new handset at any time, you can buy one without having to up-purchase your way out of a contract, or commit to another two years.
SIM-free vs unlocked
One thing to be sure of when purchasing an unlocked or 'SIM-free' phone is that not all SIM-free handsets are unlocked. The excellent Vodafone Smart Ultra 6 is a classic example of this. It is SIM-free, but if you want to use it for any network other than Vodafone you have to first use it for a month with a Voda SIM, and then pay £20 to get it unlocked.
EE's own branded phones are similar. In both cases it may well still be better to buy network branded phones and go through the pain of getting them unlocked, than to buy on contract. But you should do your research before you take the plunge. We can help with that with our feature: 'How to unlock any phone'.
The right SIM
One other thing to consider is the size and shape of the SIM required for your phone. Make sure you get a nano-SIM if a nano-SIM is what your phone requires. If you get that wrong it is easily solvable - every network will gladly send over a different-sized SIM. SIM cards tend to come in all three sizes - you simply pop out the one you need. But that's assuming you are getting a new SIM, and if you're looking for a SIM-free phone or unlocked phone you probably already have one. You can buy adaptors that let you fit a Nano-SIM or Micro-SIM in a Micro-SIM or full-size SIM slot for a very small charge.
More important is to make sure that if you want 4G you get a 4G-enabled phone and SIM.

20 best phones 2016 UK: Reviews
Every single phone in our top 20 is here because we think it is an excellent device, with which few people will be disappointed. All are plenty fast for general tasks and gaming (see our benchmark results in our What's the fastest phone? chart), have nice screens and decent photography capabilities. However, subtle differences mark them out in a fiercely competitive market. You can read the full, in-depth review of each of the 20 reviews below by clicking on the link.
1. Samsung Galaxy S7 edge
- Rating:
- Reviewed on: 20 April 16
- RRP: £639 inc VAT
- Compare: all Samsung Galaxy S7 edge deals
The Galaxy S7 edge is no longer the semi-gimmick it was before. Although some of the main features are things from the Galaxy S5 – Micro-SD and waterproofing – Samsung has given fans what they want. It's now a refined, sophisticated and highly desirable piece of technology. The battery isn't removable but the phone lasts longer than before and has seriously powerful specs under the hood. It has almost everything you could want from a phone even though the IR blaster is gone. We're also very impressed with the new camera and unless the screen is too big for you (despite some software features to help out) we think it's worth getting the S7 edge for the extra £70 with its gorgeous looks and extra functionality. Right now, this is the best smartphone money can buy.

The Samsung Galaxy S6 was the best phone of 2015 and, although it's still early days, the Galaxy S7 is a serious contender for best phone of 2016. Samsung has taken into account what its fans want, addressing the three main areas of concern: removable storage, waterproofing and battery life. It's also upgraded the core hardware and photography gear, added an always-on display and some useful software. Right now the Galaxy S7 is simply unbeatable.

3. Samsung Galaxy Note 7

- RRP: £749 inc VAT
- Compare: all Samsung Galaxy Note 7 deals
The Note 7 is another very impressive smartphone from Samsung bringing the design and curved screen from the S7 edge and adding features such as waterproofing and improvements to the S Pen stylus. It's not all rosy though as the price is sky high, the iris scanner isn't very usable and the performance isn't quite as smooth as we'd hoped. Look to the S7 edge if you're not fussed about the S Pen.

- Compare: all LG G5 deals
The LG G5 is one of the most radical phones to come along in a while and we're glad the firm has shaken things up with the modular design. The G5 is innovative and interesting with unique features but it's a shame the design and build feels unfinished in areas. It's a top-notch device which can hold its own with the best phones in performance and cameras, but it's LG's modular design which is the real selling point here. There is bags of potential but the future of this is unclear so it's hard to be definite right now. The G5 is one of the best phones around but for completely different reasons to the Galaxy S7.

5. Google Nexus 6P
- Rating:
- Reviewed on: 28 April 16
- RRP: From £449 inc VAT
- Compare: all Google Nexus 6P deals
Originally, Nexus phones stood out for being excellent value at a price that was low, but not the lowest. They weren't an alternative to flagship phones, but they had the advantage of running stock Android and getting the next version more quickly. The 6P, though, is not only a flagship, but is arguably the best Android phone to buy at the moment. It won't suit everyone due to its size, nor those looking for a phone with dual-SIM slots or a removable battery. There's no support for wireless charging either. But the excellent screen, front-firing speakers, quick charging, great cameras, speedy performance and Android Marshmallow add up to make this a phone that's a pleasure to use. And yes, it's also cheaper than its rivals, so unless you think it's worth shelling out extra on the Note 5, Galaxy S6 Edge+ or iPhone 6S Plus, the Nexus 6P is the one to buy.

6. iPhone 6s Plus

- Reviewed on: 9 September 16
- RRP: From £619 inc VAT
- Compare: all iPhone 6s Plus deals
The iPhone 6S Plus is a remarkable phone, and it's still a fantastic phone 12 months on. The 16GB model has finally been banished and the new minimum storage of 32GB should be workable for a lot of people.
3D Touch can sound gimmicky, but it's absolutely not. It requires effort to force yourself to use it to begin with, but it quickly becomes second nature and app developers have put it to use in apps and games.

7. OnePlus 3

- RRP: £329 inc VAT
- Buy from OnePlus
- Compare: all OnePlus 3 deals
The OnePlus 3 is another amazing smartphone from the Chinese company as easily its best effort yet. It's a little bit more expensive than its predecessor but it's still a ridiculous price considering the design, build and hardware on offer which matches rivals but also beats them in some areas. There's very little to dislike here unless you really need things like expandable storage and waterproofing. You don't even need an invite any longer, either.

- Compare: all HTC 10 deals
There's a lot to like with the new HTC 10 including a number of hardware upgrades across screen, camera and audio, plus a Nexus-like stock Android experience. However, we're not totally sold on the design and it's tough at the top these days. While the HTC 10 is a solidly good phone and a respectible upgrade for M9 owners, it doesn't blow the competition out of the water. The features which appeal the most are more niche than mass market.

9. Huawei P9
- Rating:
- Reviewed on: 27 April 16
- Compare: all Huawei P9 deals
When comparing the P9 to other flagships, it's important to remember the £449 price which makes it considerably cheaper than many of its rivals (but not the identically priced Nexus 6P that's also made by Huawei). Overall, we're impressed with the phone: it's well built, feels good and looks good. The cameras aren't the absolute best out there, it doesn't top the charts in game tests and the screen isn't Quad HD, but these minor quibbles are outweighed not only by the price but also because, unlike the Nexus, the P9 lets you stick in a microSD card to expand the storage. If you can afford it, the Galaxy S7 is a better phone overall, but this is a great choice if you can't.

10. Samsung Galaxy Note 5

- Buy from Samsung
- Compare: all Samsung Galaxy Note 5 deals
So, what do we think of the Galaxy Note 5? We're very fond of just about every aspect of the Galaxy Note 5, from its curved and sleek design to its vibrant display and high-resolution camera. It can handle almost anything you can throw at it thanks to its CPU, GPU and 4GB of RAM and we experienced no lag during our testing. The only bad point is that the Note 5 would sometimes falsely detect the S Pen detaching – and to point out such a minor fault says a lot about the quality of the handset. With this being said, we're both surprised and sad that the Galaxy Note 5 won't be heading to UK shores any time soon.

11. iPhone 6S

- Reviewed on: 9 September 16
- RRP: From £539
We're really impressed by the iPhone 6s. It's fast, has a great screen and a good main camera. It misses out on some of the 6s Plus's features, including optical stabilisation, but most people won't really notice. In short, the iPhone 6s is a great phone, and it's even better now it's cheaper and the base model has 32GB of storage.

12. iPhone SE
- Rating:
- Reviewed on: 11 April 16
- RRP: £379 inc VAT (16GB); £429 inc VAT (64GB)
The SE is what many iPhone fans have been asking for, and it's a great upgrade if you're still using an iPhone 5. For 5S owners, things aren't quite as clear cut. If you're not happy with the 5S's performance, the SE should solve that problem. However, unless you really want to shoot 4K videos, you're not going to notice a massive improvement in photo quality. There's a much bigger jump in quality if you're coming from an iPhone 5 (or earlier), however. Make sure 16GB is enough before you order: we'd recommend the 64GB version for most people.

13. Sony Xperia Z5
- Rating:
- Reviewed on: 29 April 16
- RRP: £549 inc VAT
There's no doubt that the Xperia Z5 is a solid flagship smartphone from Sony and an improvement on the Z3+. We certainly like the new frosted glass rear cover and the addition of a fingerprint scanner in that slim power button. The camera isn't great compared to the best phone cameras out there though, and you can get a better phone for similar money. The price has dropped, and it's now a decent-value waterproof flagship with a Micro-SD card slot. However, you can't use it underwater, and there are newer rivals which are better value, take better photos and have better performance.

14. Motorola Moto G4 (2016)
- Rating:
- Reviewed on: 13 July 16
Although the new Moto G4 is more expensive than the third-generation, Motorola is offering a Full HD screen, better processor, more storage and memory. Not everyone will enjoy the jump to 5.5in or the lack of full waterproofing but this is still a brilliant phone for under £200. Just bear in mind that the 3rd-gen Moto G is now a great buy at £149 and the Vodafone Smart Ultra 6 offers similar specs for just £125 (albeit SIM-locked).

15. Xiaomi Mi 5

- RRP: £263.75 (plus import duty)
A fantastic Android flagship that comes in at an outrageously low price, the Xiaomi Mi 5 has the braun and the beauty to match the greats. Perhaps not a wise choice for first time Android users, but those comfortable in customising the setup will love the excellent-value, gorgeously designed Xiaomi Mi 5.

16. Sony Xperia Z5 Compact

- Reviewed on: 22 October 15
- RRP: £429 inc VAT
The Xperia Z5 Compact is the best small phone around, but then there's not much competition in this area anymore and there are a number of phones offering decent specs for a lot less. Those looking for Z5 design and specs in a smaller frame will be pleased but it's a shame about the chunky design with the sharp edges. The fingerprint scanner is a great addition and the Snapdragon 810 with almost stock Android provides slick performance. However, the camera isn't as good as Sony makes it out to be.

17. Elephone P9000

- RRP: 193.98 (plus import duty from China)
We're very impressed with the Elephone P9000, which is a great all-round Android phone at an unbelievable sub-£200 price. It's fast, battery life is good, it's feature-packed and it even runs Marshmallow. Wireless- and quick-charging-, NFC-, USB-C-, dual-SIM- and microSD support are the icing on the cake. Recommended.

18. Motorola Moto X Style

If you're looking for a big screen phone, the Moto X Style is a great choice. It's got great specs across the board and it cheaper than rivals like the Nexus 6P and Galaxy S6 Edge+. We love the screen, stock Android and cameras. However, it really comes stands out when using the Moto Maker to customise it which costs more. With a screen only slightly smaller and a fingerprint scanner the OnePlus 2 is the spanner in the works here at £289 for the 64GB model.

19. Honor 7

- RRP: £249 inc VAT
Honor has once again impressed us with a flagship smartphone at an outrageous price. For under £250 you get a lot of phone for your money. Performance is good with the main camera and fingerprint sensors being the highlights on the hardware side. Emotion UI isn't our favourite Android skin but it's perfectly usable and you can always change it if you like.

20. Google Nexus 5X

- RRP: £299 inc VAT
Those looking to upgrade from a Nexus 5 will be happy and sad in almost equal measure. The 5X is a fantastic phone overall, with excellent cameras, a good turn of speed and an excellent screen. But it's noticeably bigger than its predecessor despite the small increase in screen size, it has limited storage compared to the Nexus 6P and it lacks a couple of camera features due to the slower processor. The absence of wireless charging is another blow for some, but additions such as the fingerprint scanner will make it a great upgrade for others.

This is a very sad story. It must have been very traumatic for all involved. My deepest sympathies.
JACKSON, Tenn. — A middle school student died after suffering from a medical emergency on a school bus here last month, The Jackson Sun reports.
Officials said that the student's private-duty nurse, who was with him on the bus, performed CPR, and a special-education assistant and the bus driver also tried to help. The student was taken to a hospital, where he was later pronounced dead.
According to The Jackson Sun, Jackson-Madison County Schools officials said in a statement after the incident that the student "suffered from a medical crisis of unknown origin."

Joseph Wiseman
May 15, 1918
Montreal Region
Quebec, Canada
Oct. 19, 2009
New York County (Manhattan)
New York, USA
Actor. He appeared in more than one hundred motion pictures, television programs and theatre productions during a career that lasted from the late-1930's until the early 2000's. He is most identified with the title role of the villainous "Dr. No" (1962) in the first installment of the 'James Bond' film series. Born in Montreal to Jewish parents, Wiseman as a child would move with his family to New York City where he was raised. He developed an interest for acting at an early age and made his Broadway debut at twenty in the production "Abe Lincoln in Illinois" (1938 to 1939). During the 1940's, further memorable stage performances followed with "Candle in the Wind" (1941 to 1942), "Joan of Lorraine" (1946 to 1947) and "Detective Story" (1949 to 1950). In 1950 Wiseman launched his Hollywood career, as he would make his debut in the picture "With These Hands". Among some of his other film credits include "Detective Story" (1951, reprising his role from the stage version), "Viva Zapata!" (1952), "The Silver Chalice" (1954), "The Prodigal" (1955), "The Garment Jungle" (1957), "Bye Bye Braverman" (1968), "The Night They Raided Minsky's" (1968), "Lawman" (1971), "The Valachi Papers" (1972) and "The Apprenticeship of Duddy Kravitz" (1974). From the early years of television on, he would become a recognizable performer with guest spots on such programs as "Shirley Temple's Storybook", "The Untouchables", "The Twilight Zone", "The Streets of San Francisco", "Magnum, P.I." and "Law & Order". In addition, he had a recurring role as 'Manny Weisbord' in the series "Crime Story" (1986 to 1988). He was a regular player with the Lincoln Center Repertory Theater. Wiseman's last major role was his performance in the 2001 stage production of "Judgment at Nuremberg". He was married to choreographer Pearl Lang.

Yopy 3700 Product Review
Why is the Yopy faster than a C700 even though it has a slower CPU? The answer lies in the software. Unlike the Zauruses and the Simpad, which are based on Qtopia/OPIE, the Yopy uses the X Window System and the mobile GNOME environment. Keeping in mind the X-only iPAQ distribution, Yopy is the third PDA environment to use the Linux kernel. The drawback is the GNOME mobile environment is GTK-based, making the whole collection of Zaurus software incompatible with Yopy.
The Yopy interface is not very different from OPIE or Microsoft Windows. It offers a start menu, a list of opened windows, icons for active peripherals and a clock. An on-screen keyboard and a graffiti zone make it possible to enter characters if one does not like the 49-key keyboard.
The PIM is one of the most important pieces of software in a PDA, and, as with the Zaurus, the Yopy PIM was not well thought-out or designed. A nice PIM add-on is the possibility of using the Yopy 3700 embedded Web server to update or enter PIM information from the desktop computer. Yet it would be nice to be able to keep a local copy of the PIM data.
For Windows desktops, MyPIMS is provided on the software CD-ROM. Although it is a good application, there is no possibility to synchronize the device with Outlook; the former Yopy 3000 could. The only options are third-party, non-free software or iCalendar formatted imports.
The default applications included in the 3700 mostly are the standard one. The control center has good icons and is easy to use. And the ability to run X applications is a big plus.
On the Internet side, there is no Web browser but Dillo. Dillo is not as good as Opera or Netfront or even KHTML, but the e-mail application is powerful.
Some applications stand above the others: the GQMpeg MP3 player, VLC client and Grecord make it possible to use the Yopy as an MP3 player, a portable video device (if you have a Wi-Fi stream or a big memory card) and a dictaphone. gpaint is fast and responsive. It may be a result of both the touchscreen and the GNOME mobile environment, but this paint application is intuitive and easy to use for taking small notes.
Yopy Office, on the other hand, is not very good. QPresent is the worst; QCell is better. Hancom Mobile Word here performs exactly as it does in the Zaurus version.
Overall, there are far fewer free and non-free applications available for the Yopy than there are for the Zaurus, mainly due to the distribution choice. It also is not easy to connect the Yopy to a Linux machine, and there is no Java environment. I would have preferred a Qtopia/OPIE-based distribution, if only for the amount of software available.
The boot process of Linuxpy, the Yopy default distribution, is far more verbose than that of Zaurus, and the Web server available by default are convenient options. The ability to export, display and recompile X11 applications also makes the Yopy an attractive choice. But the Yopy does not perform as good as the Zaurus on the PDA side, mostly due to the lack of application and the PIM problems.

Having re-read this review, it's facts are obsolete.
I've just noticed too that yopypda.co.uk deliver worldwide FREE!!
Unfortunately, the Yopy is no
Unfortunately, the Yopy is no longer manufactured and new units aren't available for purchase.
Yes it would seem this review
Yes it would seem this review is way off, the Yopy is a fantastic Linux handheld, if you want a PDA - buy a Palm or PocketPC.
The Zaurus is a severely crippled platform using a restrictive GUI which is not very interesting or inspiring, hence the number of projects trying to replace/reflash the ROM.
The Yopy has a full X environment, mine has GNU compilers, mplayer and lots more. I've also got Qtopia as well and I can use all the Zaurus apps including commercial ones.
This is a badly informed, badly researched, limited review which fails to grasp the sheer scope of the Yopy over anything else in the same price range.
199 UK pounds is great value, it's available worldwide NOW at yopypda.co.uk where I got mine from, there is also a new yopy.lug.co.uk support group.
Re: Yopy 3700 Product Review
This review is DRIVEL.
It's lacking FACTS. Just an ignorant review all round, the Yopy is a great device - I have SWITCHED from a Zaurus C860! to a Yopy 3700, it's faster despite having half the clock speed of the Zaurus, it DOES run Qtopia, just install it, it runs MOST ZAURUS APPS! It runs X FASTER than pdaXrom on the Zaurus, I TESTED IT - it loads and runs gPaint an order of magnitude faster than the 860. It has a fantastic sound system, with good headphones and correct treble/bass settings, the sound can blow you away, it looks fantastic, there is a cylon-esque light which is a great alarm feature.
The PIM features are great, the web interface is inspired and is one hell of a machine.
All round, it's sturdier, faster, longer lasting (in terms of power) than my previous TWO Zaurii, plus is compatible with most ARM debian, iPaq Familiar and Zaurus apps.
This reviewer is speaking from the posterior and not the mouth. Ignore his comments, try it - BUY IT.
Re: Yopy 3700 Product Review
The YOPY is also available in the US from SDG Systems (http://sdgsystems.com), as well as other accessories to make the Yopy even more useful (like a GPRS modem). You can also find a more comprehensive review here: http://www.bargainpda.com/default.asp?newsID=1688&showComments=true
Re: Yopy 3700 Product Review
I think this is a very nice review but there is one little thing I would like to comment on:
You are saying that becouse Gmate does not use Opie they are missing out on a lot of programmes.
I do not agree with you on this one becouse you should pick your operating system based on performance not applications.
The only way to get more applications is to get more users.
If we all would choose the OS with the most applications then we would all be running windows ;)
Re: Yopy 3700 Product Review
I have to say you did not really talk about the battery life or how this device can be customized . . .
What are the licenses for Yopy's platform and developer software?
I know that the Zaurus uses Qtopia, with its GPL-plus-proprietary licensing. I also know that the Zaurus's primary applications, Hancom Office and the Opera Browser, are proprietary (non-GPL'd), so for most people, the Zaurus Qtopia platform is proprietary.
How does Yopy's licensing compare?
Re: Yopy 3700 Product Review
It's not exactly difficult to connect to a Linux machine; plug in the USB, make sure the yopy is turned on (ie. open the screen) and run:
/sbin/ifconfig usb0 192.168.1.1 up
Now you can access it with a browser (to its webserver), log in via telnet, and transfer stuff to and from it with ftp. Oh, and if you're database-literate, you can make a small change to the MySQL config on it and access the database (including all PIM data) remotely as well.
As for the software, I got the Yopy precisely because the QTopia environment is pretty bad for a PDA, and in addition makes moving software over difficult due to the lack of X. That said, it is possible to parallel-install QTopia (or rather Opie) on it if you would want to. I also believe that a lot of the software written and ported to Familiar (the Ipaq distro) will work out of the box as well, though I have never tried it.
Re: Yopy 3700 Product Review
That's not easy for a pda ! I'm sorry but QTopia is much more mature. Yes it lacks it but that's a PDA we are talking about.
Re: Yopy 3700 Product Review
Hmmm. If Linux Journal doesn't support more than we could read on this article for a beautiful little piece of hardware that represent these yopys... Who will ???
X-Window on these yopys, you could connect easyly with usb network to any linux or BSD.
There's a **ing good PIMS there, mysql/boa based, so you could connect
with any OS that have an HTML brower.
You don't have java out of the box with many linux distos too. There is JAVA ports for the yopy as there is QTOPIA available and a small community of developper that need your help !
Go, buy one, really!
Re: Yopy 3700 Product Review
That's a bit of a problem as I see it; there seems to be several small groups of developers working on the Yopy in one form or another. The problem is, they seem to be somewhat disorganized and fractured - I have not found any one place that is authoritative for the Yopy and collects the efforts of different people. When you start to dig, there is a good deal of fine software for the machine, but it's not all that easy to find. There is also a dearth of beginner-level info of the type "what is the canonical collection of software you will want to install right from the start?" and "how, exactly, do I upgrade the system in practice, and add changes to the filesystem from the start?"
It is all out there, but not really collected.
Re: Yopy 3700 Product Review
Long on opinion, short facts, this review is. When will SSC start publishing real reviews? With real insights, instead of subjective horse manure like this.
Re: Yopy 3700 Product Review
I think it's my negative opinion you didn't like. Sorry but I'm much more happy with a Zaurus or with a Simpad than with a Yopy. It really feels uncomplete.
Re: Yopy 3700 Product Review
Well, seeing as the Yopy can now run Qtopia and many Zaurus apps under it, this review is obsoleted.
Re: Yopy 3700 Product Review
"Long on opinion, short facts, this comment is. When will readers start making real comments? With real insights, instead of subjective horse manure like this."
Personally, I found it informative. Other companies are going for the Qtopia stuff quite substantially, so it is interesting to see if running X11 is really likely to pay off, especially since one of the things that Zaurus power-users seem to miss is X11 and the ability to run applications which require it (or which haven't been ported to Qt/Embedded). I think this review sheds light on that debate.
Or did you get upset because the reviewer didn't try to overclock the machine?
Yes but the point is irreleva
Yes but the point is irrelevant because the Yopy can run BOTH Qtopia and X11 simultaneosly, I can even run individual Qtopia apps from X11 without the Qtopia GUI.
The Yopy has moved on, so all this about Qtopia or X is pointless, you can have both without penalty.

With all the industry talk about the benefits of Linux on Power and all the performance advantages offered by its open architecture, you may be considering a move in that direction. If you are thinking about analytics, big data and cloud computing, you would be right to evaluate Power. The idea of using commodity x86 hardware and replacing it every three years is an outdated cost model. It doesn't consider the total cost of ownership, and it doesn't consider the advantage of real processing power, high-availability and multithreading like a demon.
This ebook takes a look at some of the practical applications of the Linux on Power platform and ways you might bring all the performance power of this open architecture to bear for your organization. There are no smoke and mirrors here—just hard, cold, empirical evidence provided by independent sources. I also consider some innovative ways Linux on Power will be used in the future.Get the Guide

No Wikipedia Today In Protest!
You may have noticed that there's no way to go to Wikipedia today and do all your convenient research.
That's because they've yanked the site for 24 hours in protest over the possible passing of SOPA, the Stop Online Piracy Act.
The Wiki folks say that if passed, the act "would seriously damage the free and open internet, including Wikipedia."

Well, as someone on the gay gossip site datalogue.com posits:
"It's the corporate world trying to control everything, including internet sites and what can be posted.
"It's a ludicrous invasion of rights, all in the name of supposed copywright protection, which is bullshit.
"It's an Orwellian attempt at control."
And I'm so against Internet censorship that I even let the word "bullshit" get in there.
But a rep from the Center for Individual Freedom says the legislation is actually good because it "addresses the threat of foreign piracy and it's unfortunate that so many opponents have resorted to inaccurate and flatly dishonest claims in an attempt to derail it."
Eek. Should I have censored that?

Consumer prices, May 2011 to May 2012
June 15, 2012
Over the last 12 months, the Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U) increased 1.7 percent before seasonal adjustment.
The rate of increase in the all items index has slowed steadily since its recent peak of 3.9 percent in September 2011, driven mostly by the energy index, which decreased 3.9 percent from May 2011 to May 2012. May marked the first 12-month decline in the energy index since October 2009.
The 12-month increase in the food index, which was 4.7 percent as recently as December, was 2.8 percent in May. The 12-month change in the index for all items less food and energy was an increase of 2.3 percent in May, the same figure as in April and March. The shelter component also rose 2.3 percent over the past 12 months.
Indexes rising at a slower rate than the index for all items less food and energy include household furnishings and operations (0.6 percent), recreation (0.9 percent), and new vehicles (1.3 percent). Indexes rising more rapidly include apparel (4.4 percent), medical care services (3.9 percent), and used cars and trucks (3.5 percent).
These data are from the BLS Consumer Price Index program. To learn more, see "Consumer Price Index — May 2012" (HTML) (PDF), news release USDL-12-1183.

Tip of the Day
Using Wi-Fi and Bluetooth while in Airplane Mode
As you probably already know, turning on "Airplane Mode" on your iPhone or iPad automatically disables all wireless communications features in a single step—cellular voice and data, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and GPS. This is a handy—and almost necessary—feature when you're in a situation where you're required to turn off all transmitting devices, such as aboard an aircraft. However, you may not know that you can turn Wi-Fi and/or Bluetooth back on after entering Airplane Mode, allowing you to access an Internet connection or connect with a Bluetooth keyboard or audio device. This can be useful when aboard a flight that includes in-flight Wi-Fi, but can also be used in those situations where you may want to turn off cellular voice and data while still accessing the Internet via Wi-Fi, such as to avoid potential roaming charges when travelling abroad. Keep in mind as well that unlike traditional SMS, services like iMessage and FaceTime will work fine over a Wi-Fi Internet connection and don't require the cellular radios to be on.

Quick Easy Budget Recipes To Make At Home
Quick easy budget recipes are usually popularly with families and individuals that are either too busy for the conventional meals or having issues with funds. However, having a simple recipe can be very helpful regardless of the time or financial resources available.
Thankfully, there are quite a number of quick meals recipe that are not only fast to prepare, but would also cost little to make with just a few ingredients needed to make a complete and healthy meal. Below are some meals that would cost you little time and money to prepare. It is worth noting that some of these recipes are actually cheaper than stated in the write-up and the recipes range from good quick dinners to breakfast recipes that would take as little as five minutes to prepare.
Sticky Rice, Vegetables, With Soy Sauce
This meal is quite easy to prepare and would rank among some of the fastest and easiest recipe easy dinner meals ever as it can be prepared in few minutes with very few ingredients. The ingredients include canned or frozen vegies, soy sauce, and uncooked rice. The quantity of the each ingredient would depend on the number of people to be served. However, with an average total cost of less than five dollars, you should be able to serve six people.
The steps involved are steaming the rice, heating the canned vegetables in a microwave, and mixing the vegetables with the rice and the soy sauce. You could as well call it concoction rice.
Black Beans And Rice
This recipe is not only cheap, it ranks as one of the most-loved meals and this could be attributed to the ease of making the meal and the affordability of the recipe.
Ingredients include olive oil, chopped onion, minced garlic cloves, uncooked rice, vegetable broth, drained canned black beans, cayenne pepper, and ground cumin. Making the meal will cost less than five dollars, taking about half an hour to prepare.
Egg And Black Bean Burritos
Basically, the recipe requires three ingredients – a can of black beans, eight packs of tortilla, and eggs. Like the previous recipes, this one will cost just about five dollars to serve 6 people.
This meal is not only cheap and easy to prepare, it is also nutritious and would make for a good breakfast.
Grilled Cheese And Tomato Soup
While the recipe might sound a bit difficult compare to the previously mentioned ones, it is actually one of the easiest and fastest meals to prepare not forgetting the nutritional value of the recipe. It is a popular lunch recipe but some people really do not have a specific timing for it.
The ingredients include a loaf of bread, sliced cheese, and creamy tomato soup. Preparation starts with buttering four slices of bread and laying them on hot griddle or frying pan depending on what you decide to use. A slice of cheese is then added and topped with another slice of buttered bread and heated until the sandwich turns golden brown and the cheese is melted.
Spaghetti With Homemade Marinara
The recipe sounds pretty easy and straightforward except for the marinara sauce which is also easy to make. Ingredients needed include tomatoes, chopped onions, pinch of garlic, pack of spaghetti, and a loaf of bread.
Making the marinara sauce would require you to sauce the tomatoes, the chopped onion, and a pinch of garlic together for about 15 minutes after which salt and pepper are added to taste. The sauce is poured over the cooked spaghetti or any pasta you choose and the meal is ready to eat.
Oatmeal And Banana
We all know how nutritious oatmeal is and adding a fruit to it makes it even more delicious, nutritious and energy-packed. All you need is your oat and sliced banana or any other fruit you choose to use.
The recipes mentioned above are just some of the many easy recipes that can be made in the comfort of your home without having you spend too much money on feeding. Other very easy yet nutritious and healthy recipes that can be made at home include lentil stew, chili, chickpeas and pasta, scrambled eggs and toast, pot roast with vegies, and peanut butter and jelly sandwich.
Any of the recipes mentioned above can be tried for an affordable and quick meal that will most definitely treat the taste buds of your family and loved ones.

I do rewardable searches every day so I only needed around 20 searches to get promoted to gold though.
I don't believe anyone who says one is better than another. They both have advantages and disadvantages. A smart internet user would use both. And now I get money for using it, what's not to love?
If you want to quickly get though your searches for the day just search for something and keep pressing the related searches links to the left over and over again. Make sure it isn't the same links, because it won't count. I make it a habit to do all my searches at the start of the day.
My counter says 40 out of 150, even though I started this today.
That's funny, cus when my mom retired and lost her work e-mail address and I was going to set her up with e-mail addresses she refused a hotmail account simply because it sounded racy to her. lol. Then I said what about gmail. She said yeah that sounds much better!

Robert Hill
Robert Hill, also known as Bob Hill, was an early fandom furry artist, writer and professional fursuit maker.
Fandom involvement[edit]
Robert Hill was involved in Rowrbrazzle in the early years, sometimes doing stories with artists Pat Ortega and Wendell Washer.
His main character was Vawlkee, a Russian wolf-morph. Later he dropped out of Rowrbrazzle and began drawing hermaphrodite, Disney-style bears in various leather outfits. He published two collections of these drawings, Slave to Fashion 1 and 2, before mostly vanishing from the web.
Robert's fursuits have been seen at many conventions, and he wore some of them on the MTV special about furries when he was interviewed. His most famous fursuit is the Bambioid costume, based on the characters of artist Jerry Collins.

Nation's first hospital publishes its first history in 30 years.
Kristen Grahem, Philadelphia Inquirer Reporter and author of the new book, will be at Pennsylvania Hospital on Wednesday, December 11, 2008 from 11:30am-2pm to sign copies and discuss the book.
Pennsylvania Hospital, the nation's oldest chartered hospital, a Philadelphia icon and a pantheon of medical and architectural history, opens the book on its storied past in the new book, A History of the Pennsylvania Hospital. Authored by Kristen A. Graham, a Philadelphia Inquirer reporter, the book chronicles the hospital's history to 2008.
Graham introduces readers to the people and ideas that guided Pennsylvania Hospital through wars and social and economic crises, landing it at the forefront of healing, learning and innovation.
Twenty-five years before the American Revolution, they brought the novel concept of a hospital from England to Philadelphia to treat the sick-poor of the city. They built America's first apothecary, medical library and surgical amphitheatre.
The 120-page book includes never-before-seen images of the hospital and the men and women who make up its past. It examines changes in the healthcare system and care delivery over the hospital's 257-year history.
The Pine Building, the original hospital structure, completed in 1804, is one of the finest examples of Georgian architecture in Philadelphia, drawing the attention of architects and historians alike. It is still in use.
"A History of the Pennsylvania Hospital is educational and also accessible and entertaining for people interested in the history of health care, Philadelphia, Benjamin Franklin or historic architecture," says Peeples.
A History of the Pennsylvania Hospital costs $19.99 plus tax at the Pennsylvania Hospital Gift Shop or you may order directly via Amazon.com
