Iyaz returns as we talk books (everything except the traditional paper kind). RIM announces their tablet, the Playbook. Is it worth getting? Will it give the iPad a run for it’s money? With Hulu going on Roku, we also discuss the pros and cons of ditching that cable box and going straight for a set-top box.
As autumn brings a myriad of colors across trees and leaves, Apple releases a whole new set of iPods in all their shades and colors. Iyaz and I dish out our thoughts on each line – what’s worth getting and what’s to pass? Find out this and a lot more in this week’s Gigawhat!

Joshua Caleb joins us as we talk about what's new on Facebook and consequently, what's got privacy advocates once again up at arms and screaming. We also look at Apple's new killswitch idea (Is it just me or is it not that hard to imagine a giant "kill all" button at Steve Job's office at Apple HQ?). We also got a new hack for the PS3 (We'll see how long THAT lasts!), some iPad news and what's this...? Apparently Rupert Murdoch owns the sky?

Check us out as we take a look at the newest Blackberry slated to hit the market. Does the Blackberry have what it takes to make it among the big (smartphone) players or is it "so 2008?" We also look into this whole jailbreaking hooplah. What is jailbreaking? Should I jailbreak my phone? For you Android owners, we follow up on the Froyo update to see what's working (and what's not). Find out too why you might have to rethink those plans for an outdoor pool and why those (secret) sites you visit may not be all that secret!

Mind out of the gutter! We're of course speaking about the white iPhone 4 delays (due to light leakage) and the plethora of tablets and slates hitting the market. Looks like the next Android firmware update (2.2 aka Froyo) will be coming soon to certain phones. Meanwhile you might want to rethink that PS3 update. All this and more in this week's Gigawhat!

In the wake of San Diego Comic-Con 2010, we await the coming apocalypse, although whether that’s brought about by alien invasions in Los Angeles, the loss of work productivity playing Snake on YouTube or riots from yet another delay with the white iPhone is subject to debate in this week’s episode of Gigawhat.
For current iPhone 4 users, we look into the process of getting that free bumper Steve Jobs promised last week. If you’re waiting for the white iPhone though… well, it seems like it’s just another item to add to our list of things we’re still waiting for.

Old Spice: Yay or Nay?
X marks the spot – for Apple, it’s the line that drops your line. Fear not though, Apple has a solution… and a few extra words. While Apple’s pulling out their punches, Motorola sells out of the Droid X, the next contender for top smartphone in the market. And what of the Boxee – will it ever make it out in time? Listen in as we discuss all this and more, not to mention my choice in antiperspirant on this week’s episode of Gigawhat.

This week we look at several applications and software updates, including an improved YouTube mobile site, an update on playing Hulu Plus on PS3, and Fring - will it play nice with Skype, the new iPhone, and the HTC Evo? What still refuses to play nice on the iPhone 4? And listen to the first disagreement between Iyaz and me when we talk e-book readers! This and a whole lot more (including a reminder on password security) on episode two of Gigawhat! Feel free to leave comments and thoughts here.
