Mary-Jo Foley Gives Up on Windows Phone
Tonight we talk to Nicole Lee from Engadget about earnings from Microsoft and Google. We also discuss how Mary-Jo Foley has given up her Windows phone in favor of Android. Comcast has an app on Roku and Samsung Smart TVs, but it's not enough for the FCC. Mike Murphy talks about an autonomous robot that can bring you stuff. But don't try to steal from it, if you know what's good for you. Finally, we ponder the prototype of a machine that makes cold brew coffee in under ten minutes. All that and a lot more of today's tech news.
