    Agree, the pounding must stop. Otherwise a hilarious show with a good balance of news and kidding around. Great to bring in the chat room at times, a good additional feature for the show.

    Simon’s and Brett’s “I Can’t Tell” segment about the NDA slide and Nokia secret-phones had me squirming in discomfort. Just change your names and put a bag on your head for the podcast, then you can be an anonymous source! No one will ever know!

    Well it all boiled down to HTC I think ;P

    It has to be HTC because they have the most Smart phones if I am not mistaking :)
