Yesterday at the MWC, Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, Spain, Samsung unvelied the new Galaxy S5.  There isn't a wow factor when it comes to the actual design of the phone, but it has a few new bells and whistles.  There's a heart rate monitor and they've incorporated fingerprint scanning into this model.

Apple released a critical update over the weekend for iPhone and iPad, iOS 7.0.6.  It addresses a SSL vulnerability that would allow an attacker "with privileged network position" to capture and modify data protected by SSL.  Basically the flaw makes your secure connections vulnerable to attack.  So if you get the time, please install this update. Of course as with most updates, this requires most of us to clear out some space on our iOS devices prior to installing it.
