SouthGeek Ramble and Review 56 [111000]: Kickin’ It Big Picture Style

Summary: In this episode, the pundits are joined by Sam Lewis and they discuss the big Apple event.  Sam gives his thoughts on the refresh of the iPod Touch, which he was more excited about than the iPhone 5 announcement.  As he points out, it has been 2 years since the iPod Touch had a refresh. Other technology news that was covered:  GoDaddy's DNS and hosting issues earlier in the week where a hacker claimed responsibility, but GoDaddy is claiming it was an internal issue and not the work of a hacker; Valve releases the beta of their Big Picture mode and all the living room gamers rejoiced; Skype announces that the newly ratified codec OPUS, which will provide higher quality audio at lower bitrates, will be integrated into all Skype products; the FCC is starting a program to test and judge the speed of mobile broadband and Facebook is having a bit of trouble - they buy back 2billion of their shares in hopes of rallying their stock price.
