In this week’s podcast, your hosts Dylan F. Tweney and Priya Ganapati discuss the top gadget release of the week: Research in Motion’s BlackBerry Torch, a touchscreen phone with a slide-out “crackberry” keyboard, which will be available on AT&T.
We also discuss the impending European unified cellphone charger standard: Starting next year, every phone sold in Europe will be compatible with a single type of micro-USB plug. That means you’ll soon have no problem borrowing a friend’s charger to juice up your phone, regardless of model. But how long until this standard makes it to the U.S.?
We also show off two new products: the Doxie, a $130, portable USB scanner that specializes in turning your printed documents and photos into online files on Flickr, Evernote, Google Docs and the like; and LaCie’s XtremKey, a super-tough USB memory stick with a solid steel housing that’s resistant to shock, heat, cold, and water.
This week’s podcast is 10 minutes long.
