I can't think of anything witty to put on this image. Just make up your own jokes.

Hey all! This episode, we’re joined by someone who you’ve not heard is quite some time. The original Widget alumni: CountZer0. Why you ask? Because he has written a children’s book. Fancy that… Topics this week include:

  • SOPA, PIPA proponents back down in Congress. Yea! The Internet wins!! Though both are merely delayed rather than cancelled.
  • Megaupload shut down, founders arrested in New Zealand at behest of U.S. agencies; Anonymous targets record labels, FBI, MPAA sites in response Link and Upload.to blocks US access to site.
  • Kim DotCom’s cars seized.
  • CES : Wireless TV. LG 55″ OLED TV.  Project Fiona (aka more Razor Vaporware). 802.11ac. Waterproof phones.
  • No method of delivering true 4K content confirmed.
  • Apple intros iBooks 2, iBooks Author; proprietary ePub format locked down to only work on Apple gear and iBookstore
  • iPad 3 unveiling rumored for early February
  • Alienware intros X51 console-sized gaming computer starting at $700 Link
  • AMD Radeon 7950 card due by end of month.
  • iPhone 4s and iPad 2 untethered jailbreak finally released on IOS 5.01. XBMC 11 (Eden) beta working great on iOS touch screens now.
  • XBMC shown running on the Raspberry Pi.
  • Kodak files for chapter 11 bankruptcy.
  • X-Rangers spoof.
  • No official Steve Jobs doll for Dave. Tim provides alternative.
  • More poor PS Vita sales. Now down to 19,000 units sold in a week.
  • Bioshock infinite set to party like its 1999.

Britney has been Bioshocked

I'm pretty sure there's no way I'd let her near my Adam...

We worked really hard to try and get this show in under the 2+ hours we’ve been handing in lately. This time, we discuss (because Dave can’t help himself) the news that Hulu may be looking to make their service iPad compatible. Does this mean Flash is going to DIE… Die… die? Probably not, but Dave still has to bring it up. Also, we discuss DisplayPort vs. HDMI and how it’s creating a mess in the marketplace, and we get to hear about Paul’s PC gaming woes. Seriously, Ubisoft can go f#%k themselves with this new DRM nonsense…

Of course we have a harem of hot old operator ladies...

Of course we have a harem of hot old operator ladies...

We can’t believe it ourselves. People actually used our voicemail line, and it wasn’t just to leave angry comments about how badly Tim sucks, or how Paul is a miserable Irish bastard. Nope, they were really real questions for us. We also go over some stuff; the iPad, Apple vs. Adobe and Google, Sonic 4, Alien Sex Addict Part II (otherwise known as Mass Effect 2), and some serious talk about computer hardware. Also: Be sure to listen up for the contest to win a free game via Steam! All you have to do is insult us. No, really.
