It’s another wonderful Monday here at the Phandroid offices and with that comes the Android Overload. This is the place you can turn whenever you need a little extra helping of Android/mobile related news to tide you over through the night. We’ve got a couple of good stories here like Samsung’s newly revealed patent for a “smart skin” that sounds an awful lot like those sticker case/digital wallpapers we see on eBay and Amazon. Not sure exactly what to make of it. Any guesses?
