Want to know what's been hot in the world of technology and gadgets today?

The first Monday of November can take its toll with the dark evenings drawing in, but Pocket-lint offers some light relief in the form of a roundup of all that's been hot in the way of consumer gadgets and technology news.

Phone-related news in the roundup consists of a confirmed date for when Orange will start selling the iPhone, a tasty review of the Sony Ericsson U10i Aino mobile, the Droid being named the "Milestone" in Germany and the INQ Mini getting a price cut.
