• Creative accuses Apple's iPod of patent violation.
• What's the big Apple announcement Wednesday? Looks like an itunes phone, but is there more?
• Creative ships the Neeon MP3 player with a Windows worm.
• Is Creative #2 in the MP3 player market? They want 40% of the market by the end of 2005, but they're losing money right now.
• Google boycott of cnet reaches week six.
• Free Linspire at least till Sept. 6th. That might be more interesting news if there weren't already better free versions like Debian, Gentoo, etc.
• Roger McGuinn brought us the Samson C01U USB Mic - it's just $80 and perfect for podcasting (or recording).
• Roger's owns his own record company now... which means he actually makes money instead of the record companies.
• Apple kills the Mac mini test drive in one day. Why?
• Textamerica is offering a way for cell phone users in the wake of Katrina to tell loved ones they're ok.
• We were mesmerized by the Katrina blog from Output Crystal.
• Katrina: how is WiMAX going to work if there's no electricity?
• The Associated Press is offering Internet access to a satellite image that covers most of New Orleans, detailed enough that viewers can zoom in to check on particular neighborhoods and streets.
• Scott from Reseller Rattings is offering matching donations to Katrina to the Red Cross up to $10,000
• Arlo Rose from Konfabulator joins us. It's now free from Yahoo!
• Alex Lindsay from DV Garage and the Pixel Corps announced MacBreak the new IPTV show he's doing with Leo.
• Who isn't? Kevin has systm (taping today's show, by the way).
• And Patrick's doing a weekly IPTV show for Ziff-Davis. Episode 4 goes out LIVE 9PM EST September 6th... available for download in WMV that night, in other formats Wednesday. (Woohoo!)
• Patrick holds up the $3 telephone VOiP headset Leo likes so much...
• McGuinn plays the HD-7 - a seven string Martin he designed. Acoustic Guitar magazine is giving one away.
• Listener Questions:
• What's our biz model?
• How do we create RSS feeds? Kevin's doing his in house... Feedburner does a good job of turning blogs into podcasts. Leo uses (and loves) Feeder. Jon of the Jon Hammond show uses .Mac and Rapid Weaver.
• Why did Yahoo! go w/ $1.99 to host domains? It costs at least $4.00 to do the work w/ InterNIC... We think it's a loss leader to get you to buy other Yahoo! webhosting products.
• Where is the PowerPC going after Apple? John says it's dead.
• Gentoo Developer Chris notes crazy patents like the Tarzan yell and swing.
• Ashley... thanks for the Doin' The TWiT theme!!!
