This week would possibly not were incredibly filled with news within the mobile world, however it was still easy to overlook some stories here and there. Here’s the various other stuff that happened inside the wide world of wireless for the week of December 26, 2011:
US Cellular prepping for Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 and Galaxy S II
Neither device was announced for US Cellular yet, but a peek on the company’s ESN system shows both the Galaxy Tab 10.1 and Galaxy S II listed. Granted, this does not make for a promise — and not does, until it’s made official by the carrier — but it is a pretty strong indication that it’s at the least within the works and may likely be popping out within the near future.

ZTE introduces Fashion TV Android phone
If you’ve checked out the ZTE Blade — often known as the San Francisco — and loved everything about it besides the look, perhaps this version could be of interest. It’s called the FTV phone, named after the OEM’s team effort with Fashion TV. Frankly, it is a ZTE Blade with a paint job and some new Fashion TV-related apps and wallpapers. Heck, it even has diamonds; aren’t getting too excited, though, since they’re just clip art-style drawings of diamonds included as portion of the brand new exterior. Bling, indeed. No pricing or availability was set yet. [ UnwiredView , GSMArena ]
