Gigawhat: Episode 2 – Playing Together
Trying to figure out e-books?
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!
