This week’s Gadget Lab podcast is coming at you on the wings of victory. Wired Magazine, the print companion of Wired.com is the winner of national magazine awards in general excellence, design and for our front of the book Start section. Go team! Once we had our fill of back patting the conversation turned to a debate over Apple’s hiring of IBM chip guru, Mark Papermaster. Could this mean Apple is planning to break up with Intel and going back to producing its chips in-house?
And that’s not all. Things take a light hearted turn when we chat about a recent video experiment conducted by British journalist Rory Reid. Reid rides shotgun in a Citroen rally car and attempts to type a long string of words out on both an iPhone and an Eee PC. Plus we wax eloquent about the merits of our new favorite netbook er notebook er whatever you want to call it, the Samsung NC20.
This week’s podcast features Danny Dumas, Priya Ganapati, editorial assistant Maren Jinnett, and special guest Steven Leckart along with audio engineering by Fernando Cardoso.
