Hasta La Gadget!

A somewhat sombre duo addresses the passing of the man whose invention gave birth to podcasting itself. They also talk about tablets and cars, so don’t worry about a thing. It’s the Engadget Podcast…still hungry, with respect and humility.

This week on the EHD podcast we witness the circle of life, as Sezmi’s lights go dark Dish and Blockbuster are proudly showing off Movie Pass. But even with those, Amazon Prime, Netflix, Hulu and Google TV can internet streaming really change the entertainment model? We’ll see, but traditional TV providers are fighting back, as seen by Comcast’s AnyPlay and DirecTV’s updated iPad app. Other potential sources for change include the G.hn powerline networking standard, Facebook’s latest twist on social media and a new version of Flash and Air from Adobe. We close things out with a look at what’s on our HDTVs this week, press play and see which fall premieres made the cut.

We kind of don’t even know where to start these days! We’ve all heard about how technology expands exponentially, and this week feels like we are really getting cubed…or something. From the meta to the macro to the micro it was a silly-crazy week, and as hard as it was we did end up starting the podcast and tried to round it all up for you as best we could.
