Great show guys, and I prefer when the show gets uploaded the same day, I understad this is not always possible but when it it, it works perfectly for my schedule.
Andrew,
Reality Check.
Nokia has had a paper launch of the Lumia 920 with no Operating System, no availability date, no pricing, no hands on experience for reviewers and a faked Video thrown in. The Tech Press is very disappointed. You claim they have an Apple bias. Nope, they just like a phone launch with a functional Operating System, an availability date, pricing, hands on experience and honest advertising.
On the other hand, you diss the new iPhone before it is introduced.
I wonder who is biased? Do not moan about the splinter in your brother’s eye when you have a log in your own.
BTW I don’t want a Frankenstein laptop/tablet creation and could not give a toss about MS Office.
In addition I earn a 6 figure salary with a Mac Pro that I use every day and it is far from ‘useless’ as you pontificated.
