episode 13 - google vs china, sony ps3 digital tv tuner, transferjet, on-demand video streaming in Japan, chiaki kuriyama, and Kindle DX va iPad

We started the show with the Google vs China sagat, Hiro quizzed me on the reactions on Hong Kong citizens (I was in Hong Kong when the controversy started.) And he was surprised at the lack of surprise. Next up was some digital entertainment news, and the latest add-on for the PS3. The torune is a digital tv tuner but it also let's the PS3 record shows. With this add-on, added to the Blu-ray, Internet, YouTube abilities, the PS3 could be poised to become the defacto home entertainment center in Japan. And if that wasn't enough, DMM announced on-demand video streaming to the PS3. We forgot to mention that the ads that DMM are running feature Chiaki Kuriyama of Kill Bill and Battle Royale fame. One more piece of Sony related news was TransferJet, a new wireless memory card that sends data faster than USB2! (But of course useless for other brands of digital camera). And finally we talked about the Kindle DX International version vs the as yet unannounced iPad. We recorded this episode one day before the big announcement. I basically sum up the why I was waiting for the iPad and held off ordering the Kindle DX. And that was episode , a shorter sweeter episode than recent ones. Hope you enjoy it, and leave a comment! We're starved of comments :)
