TMobile USA's former CEO Phillipp Humm to become chief executive at Vodafone on October 1st

Less than 24 hours after the unexpected news that Phillipp Humm had penned his resignation as T-Mobile USA’s CEO, Reuters is now reporting he himself has said a chief executive position awaits him at Vodafone. As you may know, this comes after the Magenta carrier had stated Humm would be leaving to reunite with his family back in the Old Continent, and seek a new career outside of Deutsche Telekom. According to the report, Phillipp Humm’s new role will be as a chief executive for Vodafone’s operations in northern and central Europe, which is set to begin as early as October 1st. Naturally, Vodafone CEO Vittorio Colao seems to be quite satisfied with Humm’s upcoming arrival, saying it “will be a strong addition to the Vodafone group executive committee.”

Samsung Galaxy Note for T-Mobile pops up in claimed press shots, we try to feign surprise

Samsung Galaxy Note for TMobile pops up in claimed press shots, we try to feign surprise

There’s been demo units, FCC filings and the obligatory blurry photos, so it was only a matter of time before leaked press imagery completed our picture of a Galaxy Note for T-Mobile USA. As long as they’re not cosmetic makeovers by wishful T-Mobile fans, the CellPhoneSignal images portray… well, a Galaxy Note. No exotic colors, no obvious clues supporting talk that it ships with a preloaded Android 4.0 upgrade. Most of the hardware changes, then, should be all about adapting the HSPA+ 3G to support T-Mobile’s airwaves. Unconfirmed talk has the Galaxy Note reaching Magenta on July 11th; that’s nine months after the original version popped up, but we’re sure some will be thankful just to have more choices than AT&T for that phablet fix.
