In this week’s Wired Gadget Lab Audio Podcast, Daniel Dumas, Brian Chen, and I talk about how the economic recession is forcing retailers to jump start their Black Friday deals on televisions and why this is mainly a good thing for consumers. We also go over the reason why people shouldn’t worry about losing out on even bigger deals down the road if they buy a TV this week.
In addition, we discuss the dirty trick that Apple is currently pulling with their new MacBooks. Mainly, they secretly slipped in some copyright protection that prevents people from fully enjoying the use of their port the way it was meant to be used – to push iTunes movies into giant screens.
Finally, we go over the new features from the latest iPhone firmware update, and review the new BlackBerry Storm. So what’s our verdict on the latest wannabe iPhone-killer? Tune in to find out.
