  • Mini-Podcast 10: iPhone OS 3.0 Update

    I updated my iPhone 3G to iPhone OS 3.0 and decided to try out the new Voice Memos app to record a mini-podcast. I apologize for the exceptionally poor sound quality.

  • Podcast 28: iFixit.com Gadget Teardowns – CEO Kyle Wiens

    iFixit.com is famous for its detailed photography and text descriptions of gadget tear downs (mostly Apple products). They were the group, for example, that discovered the 2nd generation iPod had an unused Bluetooth radio in it. They took apart the Palm Pre and its TouchStone induction charger this past weekend. I spoke with its CEO and founder Kyle Wiens to talk about iFixit, their tear downs and their new user contributed tear downs.
