Podcasts, Hak.5 and the new apple offerings

Well first off, get the diggnation podcast and the TWiT (this week in tech) podcasts they are great. Very cool information in both. Also I found a cool show(?) Hak.5 its an interesting show about computer mods and hacks. They just started and just realeased episode 2 and you can download episodes off their site.

Ok, Apple just released 2 new pieces of kit. The Apple Nano and the Motorola E1.

First off, the motorola is apparently just a gimmick. The main feature is that is has itunes on it, but apparently there is a 100 song limit. Also its been reported that it lags quite a bit. You might as well get an MP3 phone, much more functionality for probably a better price.

The Apple Nano... well they ripped the name off Creative's Zen Nano. Well it looks great, but I think you can get more bang for buck. I think that there is a certain size where a player does not need to be smaller. The nano is supposed to have great functionality so I guess we will just have to wait until someone opens one up ;)

EDIT: and some japanese people have opened up one...
