This Week in Tech mixes it up a little this week since Leo is on vacation, instead welcoming Tom Merritt as the host. As the host of several other shows on the TWiT network including Tech News Today, Tom is very familiar with the show’s format while adding a little bit of his own flavor to the mix.
TechCrunch has recently published a very extensive story which purports that… you’ll never believe this… Verizon and Apple are going to be releasing a CDMA iPhone in January. Even news that Verizon will be presenting a keynote at CES really doesn’t have anyone convinced, with Nilay guessing that Verizon will instead be announcing some more Android partnership in the form of a tablet or two.
Google and Verizon were recently rumored to have been in talks about net neutrality, which they both quickly denied. The issue is quite detailed and intricate, so Nilay’s article on Engadget about the whole matter is probably the most succinct, explanatory coverage of the whole thing.
HP drama, RIM concession to Saudi Arabia, Google denies deal with Verizon, WikiLeaks “insurance” file, and more.
