New year & new computer, means new episodes.  I am currently setting up my new Mac mini and am getting together some topics for the show.  I'm not sure if I am going to do one topic, short shows or longer shows going over multiple topics.

Some of the topics I am testing out are:

• ElGato EyeTV/Turbo.264 HD
• Plex
• Hulu Desktop
• Front Row
• Remote Buddy vs. Mira
• Bluetooth Keyboard/Mouse vs. AirMouse
• and much more!

This episode is all about the news since my last show.  Below are all the items I talk about.

Hello All,

I am going to be going to the BlogWorld and New Media Expo beginning Thursday until Saturday.  I am driving up from San Diego to Las Vegas on Wednesday night and come back on Sunday.  I was going to do a show before leaving for Vegas, but school got in the middle of that.  So I am going to take the opportunity of being alone in a hotel room and record a show sometime this week.  I will be very busy from morning to night with events and parties and mingling, but the late night is all mine to record.

If anyone is interested in going to BlogWorld and wants to meet up with me, feel free to click on the banner above and use BWESEP20 to save 20% on tickets.  If you are in Vegas and just want to meet up, also let me know and we can find a bar or restaurant or something and get together.  As usual I will have my iPhone with me and am always signed into E-mail and Twitter and all the IM clients, so hit me up!

Thanks and talk to you guys soon!

Greg

This episode is my return to podcasting after a few months and I think it is a nice start. I talk about the Apple TV as it refers to the new iTunes 9, price cuts, a new "Apple TV" TV, and how it's been getting a lot of hate lately. Also 10.6 has a nice surprise for media center users. I would like to thank Allison Sheridan, Ken Ray, Clayton Morris, and Jonathan Coulton for their work that I am able to share on the show.

This post is more for me than you, but I will record this weekend.  I've got my new microphone and I must use it.  I'll talk about my plan for the show a little bit and what the heck is Apple doing with the Apple TV.  For those who don't know, the 40GB Apple TV is gone and the 160GB Apple TV is $229.  Are they killing it?  Are they selling their stock for a new one?  Does Apple even care about the Apple TV?  Do you care about the Apple TV?  All this and possibly more on the next episode which you should see by Monday morning on the feed.  Thanks for continuing to follow me during my "summer break."
