New Joystiq Podcast #106

“The most shocking thing about the episode is not the introduction of the Joystiq emergency hotline or our on-site report from BlizzCon. No, the most shocking thing is that we somehow avoid talking about how much we love Batman: Arkham Asylum for the full two hours. Spoiler alert: Very much.  Also, shaving is discussed in detail.”

Joel is back this week to complete the dynamic duo!

For podcast 23 we focused on Microsoft and everything that has been going on with the company lately. Incredibly, we were able to do this without even getting into Windows 7… that’s how much they have going on at the moment. We covered a lot of ground in this fast-moving, slightly abbreviated podcast.

(Note: We had some very minor audio issues, but they only last for a few seconds and occur just a few times in the podcast. They should not be significant enough to affect your listening experience.)

• Clickfree Transformer for iPod backups up your computer to your iPod or iPhone
• Jawbone Prime Bluetooth headset (review arriving shortly)
• Sharktank – a TV show about inventors and VCs – featured an implantable Bluetooth headset
• Jabra’s SP200 Bluetooth speaker (which Joel really likes)
• the upcoming Microsoft Zune HD
