Orange and T-Mobile, in the shape of “EE”, grabbed headlines earlier this week by rolling out UK’s first 4G service. That left Vodafone and O2 green with envy, waiting for a slice of the 4G pie through the auctions. O2 are now pushing hard to get their 4G …

AllThingsD are reporting Google has finally issued a statement in response to the “AppSung” verdict.
