Engadget Podcast 131 – 01.30.2009

by Jonathan Downin in TechJanuary 30th, 2009 @ 2:33 pm

The guys are talking the issues that have risen between Apple and Palm as it applies to patents.  The special thing about the Engadget podcast in particular is that Nilay Patel holds a law degree so the insights here are a bit more in depth and on the mark (probably) than most other podcast discussions.

The introduction of the second generation Kindle is quickly approaching.  If they get the industrial design right on this iteration I have a feeling that we could see the Kindle becoming the iPod of the electronic reader world.

I hadn’t heard of the Sectéra Edge before, but the guys talk about it a bit.  Looks serious.  Have $3500 to put down for one?  Still can’t get one.  Classified.

That’s right folks, the Engadget Podcast is back for more. Once again, you’re treated to the smooth tones of pure gadget goodness, though this week, our compatriot Paul Miller has been felled with a totally minor illness. Taking the controls in Paul’s battle pod this round is Engadget Mobile editor Chris Ziegler. Hear Josh, Nilay, and Chris pontificate on the finer points of the week’s big stories, including (but not limited to): RIM’s new BlackBerry Curve 8900, Obama’s old BlackBerry, Windows Mobile 6.5, a possible new Kindle, and Josh’s inner-most feelings about childcare. Enjoy!
