A teaser video has been leaked revealing the Samsung Galaxy R, displaying much of the functionality possessed by its sibling the Galaxy S II in a marginally smaller shell. In a similar vein, an Android 2.3 update is now available for Samsung’s original tablet the 7-inch Samsung Galaxy Tab.

Despite the rather recent release of OS X Lion, Apple has unveiled a beta version of OS X Lion 10.7.2 complete with iCloud functionality.
