by Michael Fisher | October 3, 2012 3:22 PMRead OnWhen you're coming down off a few weeks of huge news, there's a lot to sift through. On this episode of the Pocketnow Weekly, that's exactly what we're doing. Join Michael Fisher, Brandon Miniman, and -a first for the podcast- Chief News Editor Stephen Schenck for in-depth discussion on Apple's continuing iPhone 5 and iOS6 successes and failures, the latest in the annoyingly-named "mapplegate," HTC's new One X+ and One VX, speculation on the next Nexus, Nokia's terrifying new commercial aimed at the iPhone, and even a touch of webOS news. We changed up the order a bit this week, everyone, ...

by Michael Fisher | September 27, 2012 1:41 PMRead OnAs autumn creeps in, the frantic pace of summer succumbs to the sluggish chill of the fall, and the world slows down to catch its breath. Unless, of course, you're talking mobile technology. This back-to-school season has been one of the most exciting and dynamic in memory, with smartphones and tablets from a huge array of manufacturers vying for our strained -but infinite- attention. Tune in to this week's Pocketnow Weekly podcast for in-depth discussion of the iPhone 5, iOS 6, Apple's Maps problems; Jelly Bean, Samsung, and LG phablets; Windows Phone's lawsuits, colors, and cameras; ...

by Michael Fisher | September 20, 2012 1:13 PMRead OnThis time on the Pocketnow Weekly: SO MANY NEWS. "It's been quite a week" is something of a tired phrase when it comes to mobile technology, and we've used it, verbatim, for the past month or so -- because it's true. From Windows Phone 8 to Android to iOS 6 to ... heck, even BlackBerry had some news this week. We did our best to get to most of it on the podcast, but there's only so much time in a morning, especially when some of the news is so finely detailed. Tune in to this week's Pocketnow Weekly podcast for in-depth discussion of HTC's new Windows Phone 8 handsets, new Android phones ...

by Michael Fisher | September 13, 2012 2:45 PMRead OnWe know something about slow news weeks. For much of the summer, that's what the tech news cycle felt like: waiting for promised events and products, attending the occasional (and awesome) product launch, but always looking forward to the "coming months." Well, that month has finally come, and it's called September. Hot on the heels of IFA in Berlin, a bevy of companies -Apple, Nokia, Samsung, and Motorola- all hosted events of their very own, unleashing a slew of hot new hardware devices on the public. Tune in to this week's Pocketnow Weekly podcast for a boatload of iPhone 5 discussion, ...

by Michael Fisher | August 16, 2012 12:53 PMRead OnSometimes, you have a packed news week that needs talkin' on. Sometimes, one of your hosts has a new mic, a new computer, and a new recording room 200 miles away. Sometimes, you've got so much to cover that you need to skip over a couple things. Maybe one of these things happens on this week's installment of the Pocketnow Weekly. Maybe all three of them do. We don't know. Even for Yoda, sometimes "clouded, the future is." You'll just have to listen to find out. But for sure, you'll want to put your ears on our latest episode to hear about the new Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1, Windows Phone ...

by Michael Fisher | August 8, 2012 1:52 AMRead OnWhat do you do when one of your co-hosts is too busy to record a show, leaving you with only 66% of your manpower for the newest (rebooted) mobile-tech podcast on the scene? You accede to the wishes of your fanbase, of course, and bring on a guest! Well, maybe it didn't pan out exactly like that. Maybe we always wanted to have Joe Levi the Android Guy join us on the Pocketnow Weekly. Maybe we even said as much on past episodes, on account of a few readers vocally calling for Joe's inclusion! Well, we're finally delivering. This week, Joe, Anton, and Michael bat around some rumored Nokia ...

by Michael Fisher | August 2, 2012 2:27 PMRead OnThought we skipped a week on you, huh? Nope! Michael had a slight problem getting home from a trip across the country, thanks to an airline whose name we dare not mention, so this week's recording was delayed by a day. To make it right, we arose bright and early this morning to bring you the fourth installment of the Pocketnow Weekly podcast. Tune in for a discussion of wedding traditions, name pronunciations, and a whole lot of segues into crazy hypothetical worlds filled with exobytes and ideal UIs -- and, of course, the official topic list below. Lots of Android news dominates the feed ...

by Michael Fisher | July 25, 2012 11:26 AMRead OnIt's week three of our newest podcast, and we haven't caused any riots, computer explosions, or divorces yet ... so we must be doing something right. This week, Michael, Brandon, and Anton discuss the finer points of Android Jelly Bean on tablets and phones, what Nokia's Lumia sales numbers mean for the company, whether our world is ready for yet another SIM standard, and what platform they'd use if they were forced to choose a non-top-three OS. Also on the docket: some behind-the-scenes ruminations on what drives Pocketnow, thoughts on video podcasts, and why Michael's always being ...

by Michael Fisher | July 18, 2012 10:32 AMRead OnAnother week, another round of chatter with Michael Fisher, Brandon Miniman, and Anton D. Nagy on the Pocketnow Weekly. In the news this week, we talk the usual Android, WP7, and iOS happenings, plus a smattering of Meego and a little side-trek into our relationship with you, the listeners/readers. We're at two weeks in a row at this point, and with the exception of a few stumbles, a pacing issue or two, and going well over time, we think it came out pretty well. Michael's levels are a little low on this one; sorry, listeners- that'll be corrected in recordings going forward. We're still ...

by Michael Fisher | July 12, 2012 11:33 AMRead On"New beginnings in print beget new beginnings in podcasts." We're not sure who said that. In fact, we might've just made that up right here, on the spot. And that's the kind of seat-of-the-pants action you're going to get every week on our new podcast, the Pocketnow Weekly. Join contributing editor Michael Fisher, managing editor Anton D. Nagy, and Editor-in-Chief Brandon Miniman for episode 001, where we (re)introduce ourselves, talk about where we've been and where we're going, and even discuss the week in mobile technology news. Since this is a new podcast with a new format and new ...
