In this podcast, Jon Westfall and I discuss several new technology releases and personal experiences with gadgets. They talk about Google's plans to integrate AI features into the Chrome browser to improve security and search functionality.

Nothing Ear (3) earbuds, which have an interesting feature where the charging case can be used as a microphone.

AirPods Pro (3), noting the magnetic case and the new ear tips, and he and Ogasawara compare the sound quality of various microphones.

Meta Ray-Ban smart glasses with a heads-up display and gesture control, but express frustration over the limited availability and the requirement to get a demo at a few select stores.

We also briefly touch upon the new iPhone Air, speculating that it is a test run for a future foldable iPhone.

Mac OS 26 update and its effect on the VO2 Max calculation, which has led to inconsistent readings for users. The podcast ends with a nostalgic discussion of their favorite Windows CE devices. I talked about my first Windows CE device: The HP 320LX Handheld PC. Jon discussed his first "real" smartphone, the HTC Himalayas, and his all-time favorite, the HTC Kaiser or Titan II, praising its form factor and features.
