Samsung Galaxy S III Could Be 2012 London Olympics Phone

Samsung is having a big press event announcement on May 3rd and tech rumors are saying that it could be the official launching of the new Samsung Galaxy S III - while the name is still unofficial, it is expected that the smartphone company will be releasing the next generation of the phone series.

In relation to that, many are also expecting an announcement that Samsung will most likely be the official mobile phone partner of the 2012 London Olympic Games. But all these are still unconfirmed, along with the possible new specifications and features of the upcoming smartphone.

According to tech analysts, it's most likely that the Galaxy S III will be almost identical to the S II with improved internal specs such as a faster processor. Some even say that Samsung could do an "Apple" which released an iPhone 4S which didn't really differ much from the iPhone 4.

Regardless of what the next Samsung Galaxy evolution will be, we're certain that this model will be the top of the line Android phone in the market once released.

Daniel Craig 'to open London Olympics as Bond'

Daniel Craig is reportedly opening the 2012 Olympic Games ceremony after a personal invitation from the Queen.

The James Bond actor has been asked to film scenes as the iconic agent in Buckingham Palace for the highly-anticipated sporting event later this year.

According to British newspaper The Sun, in the short movie Daniel's Bond character will arrive by Royal Appointment to be told his latest mission is to launch the Games before being taken by helicopter to parachute into the Olympic stadium in East London.

The Queen - who personally sanctioned the film - may even make a cameo appearance but royal sources are keeping details close to their chests.

Filmmaker Danny Boyle is creative director of the opening ceremony and is thrilled with making 007 a key part of the spectacle.

"It's a huge coup for BBC producers and Danny to be allowed into the Palace and have the Queen involved. They wanted the most iconic British film character inside the building most associated with London and with the monarch - and they got it," an on-set source told the publication.

"It will be a magical scene for all watching at home and inside the stadium on July 27. Working out the logistics of filming has taken months and hasn't been easy - but it will be worth it in the end."

A Palace spokesperson added: "Buckingham Palace is involved in a number of filming projects during this special Jubilee year and we would not go into details of any particular project until nearer the time of transmission."
