If you’ve been paying attention you should know that the iPhone 3GS currently features a Samsung Cortex A-8 processor running at 600MHz. Well, Samsung has come along to show Apple what could have been.

What you see above is Samsung’s latest Cortex A8 core which the company is currently touting as the world’s fastest at 1GHz. Of course, since it’s apparently the world’s fastest, Samsung had to give it the ridiculously appropriate code name of “Hummingbird”.

Perhaps we will see these appear in future smartphones thus blurring the line between smartphones and computers even further.

Looking to an alternative to that Skype VoIP service? How about a VoIP phone that will let you talk for ages in the USA without any single few? That’s the Ooma Core phone I am talking about which is already available for around $250. It might seem like a lot but since you won’t be charged any monthly fees, you can consider it a great deal. After buying it you can choose the number and the area code and you can even get services like caller ID and call waiting. If landlines are slowly dying, then there’s no reason for not getting a VoIP phone installed in your house.
