Apple launches a new product and BlackBerry pushes it out of the headlines. Who’d have thought it, eh?

Yes, Apple’s new $799 128GB iPad didn’t get much of a mention in the mobile press last week - thanks to the new BlackBerry 10 platform and two new smartphones. Memories of Stephen Bates’s awkward BBC interviews were soon forgotten as the touchscreen Z10 appeared and quickly hit the shelves of UK retailers.

Three UK says it’ll be adding 4G connectivity to all its existing price plans and won’t be charging any extra for the faster service.

Customers with a compatible phone will be able to enjoy a 4G connection from Three as soon as it is available.

Twitter says a security attack late last week managed to gain access to information about around 250,000 of its users. It appears the hackers gained access to usernames, email addresses and encrypted versions of passwords.

The service responded by resetting passwords for all affected accounts, which appeared to include many Twitter ‘early adopters’.

UK mobile virtual network operator Ovivo Mobile is using online investment platform Crowdcube to find new financial backers.

Ovivo, which was founded by Dariush Zand last year, offers its customers a bundle of free calls, text messages and data usage each month.

During December 2012 in the United States the HTC Evo 4G contributed 20% of web traffic from HTC devices. What is remarkable about this figure is that the HTC Evo 4G was first released in June 2010 and is almost three years old.

The HTC One series of devices were released during 2012 and contributed less than 10% of HTC’s web traffic in the same month.

Are HTC devices released pre-2012 too good at browsing the web?
