Natali Del Conte joins us today for a discussion of quantum mechanics, Apple laptop pricing, super satellites, click-jacking, and crowd-sourced baby names. It sounds kind of heavy, but it’s surprisingly goofy. We think you’ll enjoy it. Also: stop Skyping us! Buzz Out Loud episodes are released in their original audio form. Some metadata supplementation and/or …

That’s the dog-sized Bluetooth headset you can buy to go with today’s REAL news item, the new BlackBerry Storm: announced but not released. Until it comes out, though, it’s basking in the warm glow of the meeting and maybe exceeding expectations judgments coming from the press. In sum, it sounds cool. And Google decides it’s …

Apologies in advance for the slightly dirty word toward the end of the show. Now you’ll all listen, won’t you? In other news, Ford wants to make sure your kids don’t speed, that they wear their seat belts, and that they intensely hate your guts. And Google wants to make sure you don’t send mail …

In today’s show, featuring co-host Dan Ackerman, we discuss the benefits of being an independent musician (Dan says it’s a great time!), the increasingly furious-yet-futile fight between the MPAA and RealDVD, Delta pre-emptively filtering porn on planes, and Kid Rock finding a home on the Web, whether we want him there or not.

Whence comes the sad trombone and other questions of great worldly importance dominate today’s discussions, but there is, in fact, other technology news today. For example, Steve Jobs is ok but citizen journalism may not be, iTunes isn’t going to have to shut down after all (but copyright pricing remains outrageously stupid), and Microsoft extends …
Stuck with a stinky new Mac Pro? Good news: it might be toxic! (No proof of toxicity has been determined.) Also, Tom Merritt reveals himself to be a ruthless murderer of Firefox downloads.

On today’s show, a big, fat present for long-time listeners (and Veronica Belmont fans): Veronica Belmont joins us! In the news, Real’s pre-emptive lawsuit fails to stop the studios from suing over RealDVD, Apple’s threat to close iTunes, Dell offering you Iron Man along with its computers, and Starz on Netflix!

Richard Stallman says anyone who puts their data in the cloud is stupid. Cooley thinks he’s right about some things but finds other parts of this statement stupid. Find out which is which. We also get into a discussion of why exactly the House of Representatives website went down. Cooley doesn’t buy any of it. …
Natali says she giggles when she sees guys using the tiny little Eee PC. But she doesn’t question their manliness. Engnr_Chik thinks netbooks are for everyone.
