Engadget Podcast 365 - 10.17.13

We're back in the studio this week, but you'll have to get your Brian Heater fix while you can, as he'll be out for the next week or two. Dana Wollman and Joseph Volpe join our host to talk about Microsoft's "lean mean heavy machine," the Surface Pro 2, and Joseph admits to both wanting a watch with lasers on it and possibly stalking Mr. Heater on his pasta shopping expeditions. Our very own Dr. Evil perhaps? We also chat about the benefits of the Windows 8.1 update, speculate on the upcoming Apple event and question BlackBerry's rationale for joining the open letter trend. Want to find out all the dirty details? Join us for this week's Engadget Podcast after the break.
