Hope you’ve all recovered from New Years festivities, because CES is next week…
Alright everybody, holidays are over – big mobile news is coming from all directions next week, and we’ve got to shake off the eggnog and keep our heads straight. Will joins us for the first post-holiday podcast, and we talk about a lot of what’s coming at the Consumer Electronics show, namely the new Nexus One from Google, T-Mobile, and HTC. iTablet rumours have persisted throughout December, and we talk a bit about their repercussions and solidity. Verizon has been having a bit of a squabble with the FCC regarding increased ETF rates, so Will and I talk about consumer rights, and commercial imperative.
Of course, nobody walks away from The Signal without having a chance at some free loot. This go-around, we have a free subscription to NBA’s League Pass Mobile service, which lets you watch games (both live and replay) and catch scores from your iPhone or Android device. For your chance to win a season pass, just retweet this post using that little button at the bottom.
With that, happy new year, everyone!
