73: Avenging the Death of xBox
When a meteor strikes earth, the only thought in your mind should be one question: When will the Avengers assemble? That’s what we asked ourselves while talking about tech this week. Perhaps the other 2 questions you’re asking are 1) When is Elon Musk going to reveal his personal arc reactor? and 2) Will Microsoft ever figure out how to innovate again with their xBox?
Then there might be other news: Sony might stream games to their next gen PlayStation, HP might make an Android tablet, Google might open retail stores, Samsung might start selling Tizen smartphones soon, and Nest might make another smart home-based product.
