The Gift of the Nexii | Pocketnow Weekly 160

Sometimes the news comes not in a solid column from a single direction, but as a scattershot shower-spray from every corner of the space. Today's podcast reflects just such a week in mobile technology, with tech news as far-flung and varied as the menu items on an appetizer mixer from Applebee's. 
All that (plus a larger-than-normal helping of your listener mail) is waiting for your ears on episode 160 of the Pocketnow Weekly! So twist the toggles and don your goggles, because this podcast is ready to fly. Watch the video broadcast from 2:00pm Eastern on August 7 (click here for your local time), or check out the high-quality audio version the Monday after we broadcast. And don't forget to shoot your listener mail to podcast [AT] pocketnow [DOT] com for a shot at getting your question read aloud on the air!
