TOPICS:
Matt’s on business, flying in and flying out. Is he Superman or Yoda? ;)
Congrats to Father Roderick and the Catholic Insider podcast!
Kevin took the Ubuntu plunge (with a safety net) on the Samsung Q1.
Even scarier: how did GottaBeMobile know to write that story up at the VERY minute we were recording this segment of the show? ooohhh….scary….
Need another input method for your UMPC or Tablet PC? James tried out InScribe which is coming very soon from Ilium! If you have a touchscreen computer, you will want to check it out.
Linda Epstein provides a great analysis of why UMPCs aren’t $500…makes sense to us!
Dell recall of the Sony notebook battery. Yes, Sony makes the Dell battery…interesting….
Freeware of the show: GAIM instant messenger client for multi-IM platforms.
Linux really IS gaining smartphone market share; just ask Motorola!
