woo! I love these podcasts!

[The Shadow Posted Mar 13th 2010 4:27PM]

Wow, my browser if freaking out, the play button is tiny.

[ZiggyFromMars Posted Mar 13th 2010 4:32PM]

Oooh, sexy Paul...

[juanvaldez Posted Mar 13th 2010 9:53PM]

@ZiggyFromMars He doesn't sound like Chandler from Friends anymore. Therefore, Paul Miller is a bit more sexy today.

[juanvaldez Posted Mar 13th 2010 10:49PM]

@juanvaldez I think I meant Ross, but I'm not going to put more thought into it.

[Nitesh Posted Mar 13th 2010 5:34PM]

You guys blaze up before recording this, admit it.

[abedinthehouse Posted Mar 13th 2010 6:02PM]

Go Courier!

[Archon Posted Mar 13th 2010 6:32PM]

WHY would you buy one!?!
You guys are smarter than this!

[ericg1840 Posted Mar 13th 2010 6:54PM]

Is it just me or do these new podcasts not show up in itunes? I check on my phone and my laptop and nothing.

[AndroidRokz Posted Mar 13th 2010 7:59PM]

paul is sooooooooooo sexy

[Minions Posted Mar 13th 2010 8:08PM]

Smallest buttons for podcast ever. Wonder if its an issue with the new firefox update.

[abedinthehouse Posted Mar 13th 2010 8:48PM]

Will you guys be covering the coverage of the Lenovo U1 Hybrid?
such as a review and such? and should consumers consider buying that instead of a lone tablet?

[chilimost Posted Mar 13th 2010 10:06PM]

Still getting the error during the "processing" step when trying to download the podcast on the iPhone.. is this actually working for anyone?

[RealdudePRO Posted Mar 13th 2010 10:18PM]

Yep. The error message still comes up when downloading from directly from the iPhone iTunes app.

Hope you guys fix this soon.

[Lyndle Posted Apr 6th 2010 11:47AM]

@RealdudePRO

Did you find a solution to this problem?

[takemori Posted Mar 14th 2010 4:21AM]

Cool, I have found the play button :) Seriously on the latest podcast - I think you are a bit hard on HP slate, if this thing would work long enough, it will not I know, but lets imagine in 1,5 years or so if it really works for lets say 12 - 20 hours on one charge this is totally what I would like to have - there is a certain charm in having a very mobile device with still big screen and with full desktop OS on it.

[david9944 Posted Mar 14th 2010 9:37PM]

Thanks for the special barry white edition

[S4Rs Posted Mar 15th 2010 11:14AM]

How can the JooJoo and the Slate play Hulu if there is no mouse hover action for the touchscreen to bring up the controls? Am I missing something?

[n2whyteguyz Posted Mar 15th 2010 4:24PM]

I've heard of sexy cold voice but never a Jekyll and Hunk situation this dramatic
