Consumer news. Plus how many of these "OMG IS THIS THE NEW S3??!" posts do we need?

I've noticed this deluge too. Is it genuine grassroots enthusiasm for the new device or is it a successful PR campaign?

I'm a very happy owner of a Samsung Galaxy Nexus, but even I find the hype a bit much. Whether real or organic it seems to be aping the worst elements of the Apple rumor-news cycle a bit too much for me.

I don't think it's anything malevolent on the behalf of Samsung, I think it's just that the S2 was a very very popular phone (I'm the happy owner of one) and therefore the S3 launch is kind-of a big thing. But really, we don't need every slither of news about it to be published. It's just link-bait from BGR.
