We were so beguiled by AD’s bamboo-bound smartphone that we had to track down the designer to get some hands-on time with these work-in-progress prototypes. We met up with Kieron-Scott Woodhouse (pun unintended) and he offered to bring along several of the latest prototypes for us to get to grips with. While the finished product will arrive in the lighter bamboo finish, the darker model’s button layout is closer to what we can expect on the final device.

After a New York Times article on conditions in Chinese factories that make Apple products, Timothy Cook, Apple’s chief executive, sent a companywide memo on Thursday to explain. “We care about every worker in our worldwide supply chain. Any accident is deeply troubling, and any issue with working conditions is cause for concern,” he wrote.

A mysteriously packaged Samsung device departed the FCC’s secure zone with a few question marks over its character. We know it’s got GSM/EDGE 850 – 1900 radios and can access WCDMA Bands II and V, plus the usual WiFi and Bluetooth gear, but that’s about it. The folks at Wireless Goodness are staking the GT-i9070 as a China-bound variation of the Galaxy SII (assessed for roaming safety), which would seem logical, since we’ve clearly got enough models over here.
