The guys at Samsung have already begun sending out invitations for the submission of a new device Galaxy. This event will take place on Wednesday 15 August at a place we do not know.

Our bet goes for the Galaxy Note 2, what about yours?

For the "Wired," the Apple spokesperson Trudy Muller said only that the application was removed from the App Store for "unauthorized use of your contact list, a violation of the rules of the store."
It is not the first time that an application "steals" the catalog of contacts in iOS devices. In 2008, the game Aurora Feint was removed from the App Store for security and privacy problems. Aurora sent the contact list of users to their own servers without using encryption features.
More recently, the Path, application to share posts, photos and videos, also captured private data from users of iOS. The company apologized for what happened and claims to have deleted the data collected.
The "Find and Call", unlike the Aurora Feint and Path was developed exclusively for stealing data from mobile devices - what would rank as the first malware for Apple's system.
