This week, we talk with the guys from London about HTC's phones slated to hit next year, plus Pocket-Lint's awards, and Nokia looks to be closing its Regent street flagship store... is it a sign of the economy, Nokia's health, or both? We ask Dan Sung and Duncan Geere from the site.

TechVi.com — Tue, 01 Dec 2009 23:36:07 +0000

We talk to the guys from Pocket-Lint this week about some big changes... namely a phone manufacturer who's creating a phone that's last priority is to call, Panasonic might put an end to its classic turntable line, much to the chagrin of DJs everywhere, and Microsoft and the Beeb are brawling over the iPlayer, and it might not end up on Xbox Live afterall. Check out the show as we talk about some of the highlights overseas.

Nokia N900, Chrome OS and Bing-corps: Pocket-Lint this week

Awards season, mini phones and Pirate Bay drama

TechVi.com — Tue, 17 Nov 2009 18:23:36 +0000

This week, our ol' chaps from over the pond (that is what they're called, right?) check in to speak of the unspeakable drama going on at The Pirate Bay. Not unspeakable because it's dramatic, scary or obscene, but it's just unspeakable because... well... explaining the situation gives us a bit of a headache. We'll let Duncan expound on how pirate visitors to The Pirate Bay actually might have a better shot at getting away with it.

Also, Dan chimes in on a notable trend, specifically the trend toward creating a "mini phone." In essence, the netbook / laptop relationship has extended to the mobile space, where less expensive smartphone handsets are starting to roll out in tandem with their bigger brethren. Phones like the Pixi and the Palm Pre, among others. What's with the fad, and is it worth buying into?

Lastly, it's award season over at Pocket-Lint, and besides the requisite champagne dreams after winning a Pocket-Lint-ie (that's not what they're called), the guys explain some of their favs including a piece of software getting some U.K. buzz that soon could be coming stateside.

Also, give us feedback if you've got it. pocketlintshow@techvi.com. We'd love to hear what you think of the show.

Modern Warfare 2 drama, Rick Rolling the iPhone, and more from Pocket Lint

TechVi.com — Tue, 10 Nov 2009 18:04:09 +0000

We're talking with the guys across the pond at Pocket-Lint about some of the biggest stories of the week. Among them? Modern Warfare 2 has apparently stirred up some controversy across the pond with a mission being alleged for a terrorist training simulator. Also, a (likely bored teen) Australian hacker has created an iPhone virus which changes infected iPhone wallpaper to Rick Astley, is this the first of a wave of iPhone infections? (Spoiler: Probably not.) Also, Rupert's hatred for Google, and a Palestinian street named after a Twitter account.
