    With the recent announcement of all the new tablet devices, we try to break down the differences and search for a way to fit them into our lives. Steve and Francois review the Apple TV and Netflix service, Steve gets grilled about his Kindle and the new TomTom traffic routing proposal. Ben previews the Pentax K5 and Eric finally gets a decent mic, now he just needs to figure out how to turn it on.

    Nearly Live From The Wendyhouse Studios of Valois Bay…

    This week we discuss McGoo’s new Drobo and various online backups, we toss around the rumours about the new Apple TV and the notion of streaming audio around the house. We get an eunexpected visit form Google Voice in our GMail, mull over a few location aware GTD apps and kick the BlackBerry Torch around while we try our best to bring the whole discussion back around to the iPhone yet again. And just for good measure we take Social Media around the back of the  bike shed…

    What we talked about: (Yes Actual Links in the Actual Show Notes!)

      Nearly Live From The Wendyhouse Studios of Valois Bay…

      It’s our third season and boy are we pumped, we’re laying it down so hard this year, or whatever it is I’m doing in this picture. So please join us for our first full show of the new season and our summer round up and of course yet another discussion on TomTom units and the joys of travelling and trusting your GPS. But don’t worry, Steph made us promise that we wouldn’t mention the iPhone and you’ll have to listen through to see if we can actually do it. Also as a special bonus, we actually review a Hello Kitty gadget you will never see on Engadget or gdgt.

      Show LInks The TomTom Ease:

      The TomTom Star Wars Voices
      Sanrio Hello Kitty SMS Text Messesnger
      Garmin nüvi battery recall
      PodCamp Montreal 2010

    • DadCast 18 – Season 3 The PodCamp Montreal PreShow

      Nearly Live From The Wendyhouse Studios of Valois Bay…

      As we start packing our laptop bags for this weekends’ PodCamp Montreal, we thought we’d put together a special 2FatDads introspective / retrospective from all of the chaos that happens before we start the show. This is most definitely not a how-to white paper on podcasting but more like an inside baseball view into what it takes to get 5 busy dads in the same place or on the same call every few weeks. We’ve often said that the stuff that happens before and after the show is the best stuff, and here is 14 minutes and 34 seconds of proof. So if you run into us at PodCamp Montreal ask us about the bowling shirts or Home Depot or that time one of our guests drilled through our Internet connection and then tired to splice it back together with masking tape. It’s really us, and that stuff really does happen all the time. We’re not even smart enough to protect the names of the innocent.

      Enjoy.
