Kevin and I are back with a new techADDICTION Show and this one is full of cool gadgets, talk about prison, the cheapest M205 ever and much, much more. Listener comments are once again featured on the big show and we even take a look at fuel cell technology. Jack, our very first call-in ever, is back on this week’s show and we tell him what he’s won for being the first. If you can’t tell we had a blast doing this show and your suggestions, comments, kudos, and stop thats are very welcome in the comments on the techADDICTION blog and especially on the techADDICTION Skype line. Hope you like it!
