Flipboard for Android 'liberated' from Galaxy S III demo unit, available for all

[![Flipboard for Android 'liberated' from Galaxy S III, available for all][1] ][2]

For many, one of the biggest causes of jealousy after the [Samsung Galaxy S III][3] [launch event][4] wasn't that 4.8-inch screen, or the new [Exynos][5] innards, it was that beautiful looking Android version of Flipboard. Alas, the Korean mobile giant had enough cunning to secure that little gem all for themselves -- for the time being. That is, unless, you're a naughty little _xda-developer_ visitor, perhaps called _Valcho_, who had the foresight / lack of restraint at the event to nab the .apk from one of the demo phones. He's made it available for all and sundry (well, those with Android phones at least). If you want to see how it looks on your phone point it at the source link, or be a good spirit, and wait for the official outing.
