The DROID is taking over. Glancing at the time break-down of the show, you may think that the main DROID talk takes in the first 20 minutes, but it actually runs through the first 40 minutes. There is a lot to say (see the review) about the new handset, and the guys generally agree that [...]

It’s all Windows Phone (Windows Mobile 6.5) talk this week. The guys are on the same page as the gdgt’s Ryan and Peter yesterday.

The first story this week has the guys discussing the ongoing Apple/Google Voice debacle.

It’s a phone-heavy show this week, but the guys are starting out with Toshiba’s entry into the tablet market. It’s almost like Toshiba is trying to cash-in on the Apple tablet rumors, but with a device based on Windows Mobile 6.0 they will have a hard time convincing anyone that it is worth their money.
