The Sony Next Generation Platform (or PSP2, as it was previously known) took another shaky step along the road to release with a rumoured November launch date. If the whispering of the internet is to be believed, the NGP will be released simultaneously in all markets in time for Christmas this year.

LG are said to by paying Sony 130,000 Euros by way of compensation as well as facing hefty fines for any reticence in payments.

No, the real Apple question on everyone's lips is: "when can I snag myself a white iPhone 4?" OK, not really, but just for those three people still itching for the white version of a near-year-old mobile, the alabaster iPhone 4 apparently on its way next month.
