Welcome to this very special edition of Techcast! We didn’t release at our usual time of Wednesday night due to a number of scheduling issues, so we’ve decided that we’ll do catch-up and release a special episode. This week we talk about Apple purchasing Beats for way too much money, more UberX issues, the Huawei phone launch in Australia and a few other things.
