Technogaze

5 Apr 2014

April Fools, Apple v Samsung, Oculus Rift, Office for iPad, Win XP and the latest Android Smartphones

Technology

Technogaze was brought to you this week by your regular crew of Mark, Raena & Michael.  We had a look at some recent April fools frolics, including the same connected pet story from the three major telcos.  Apple -v- Samsung continues to stir controversy with lawyers arguing over a video that explains how the patent system works.  Oculus Rift has been purchased by Facebook with kickstarter adopters up in arms over the sellout.

We refuted a recent internet meme that would have you believe that changing the font that you use would save money and for the first time ever we dedicated a whole block of the show to Microsoft.  Is Satya Nadella turning the company around?  Although Win XP is no longer supported, some 28% of internet users are still using this version of Windows.

Jason from Ausdroid, was on the phone to talk about the latest Android handsets – the HTC One M8 and Samsung S5.
