Pocketnow Weekly Episode 017: Lumia 920, HTC 8X, Leaving Android, CommBadge, And So Much More

Опубликовано 7 ноября 2012, 18:17

You know the drill: another week, another overload of tech news for three geeky guys to talk about. On this exiciting episode of the Pocketnow Weekly, though, things are a little different: in addition to the usual news from the three big mobile platforms, Michael, Anton, and Joe discuss issues of major import for the industry in our broadcast's new preshow segment. Today's "Thought Thread" covers the Digital Millennium Copyright Act and its impact on smartphones and tablets, as well as a little invention called CommBadge that has the potential to bring voice interface back into the spotlight. Afterward, we talk Windows Phone -in all its colorful HTC and Nokia flavors- before delving into Android and iOS, then wrapping it up with some typically excellent listener mail.
