Podcast - Apple Weekly Report #114 2008-02-04: Mega-Mergers, iPhone Security, & Pacemakers

by , 12:30 PM EST, February 5th, 2008

Direct Link: MP3 Version

Audible.com agreed to an Amazon buy out while Microsoft made a bid for Yahoo in an effort to hold off search giant Google. U.S. courts added another two years to Microsoft's antitrust follow up, iPods turned out to be safer for heart patients than previously thought, and a new iPhone security threat was discovered.

1- Real Player, so had it coming. Since I still do tech support for Mom, I really hate Real, it's like a virus.

2- Okay, Bryan, no more Mountain Dew before the show!

3- If Amazon keeps Audible as easy as it is, but throws it's weight into it, fantastic!

4- C'mon, Linus, aren't the little guys supposed to stick together? Did Snoopy steal your blanket? Really this Apple File attack seems so random.

5- MMMM... 32G iPod touch.... <drool>.
