We've got a jam-packed show this week. On the first half, it's a blast from the past with Sascha Segan to talk about the launch of the global BlackBerry from Verizon and Sprint. Sascha even explains to listeners how you can turn your Windows Mobile device into a BlackBerry. Then we turn to audio expert Tim Gideon to discuss his review of the Sandisk Sansa Express MP3 player. Could it be an iPod Shuffle killer?
On the second half, AppScout great Brian Heater brings us some sad news: Internet radio is dying. He spoke with Pandora founder Tim Westergren for ways that fans can help save Internet radio. Blogging Molly joins us, and she's got a party in her pants! She suggests the kinds of gadgets you should have at your next party, from the Apple TV to the Nintendo Wii. And the Weird Hunter suggests a few of her own. But that's not all--stay tuned for this week's weird gear; it deters burglars!

In response to the recent show item in which there was criticism of the amount of humor and bantering, and more particularly an e-mail suggesting that you cater only to the youngest of the crowds, I'm 67 and will be 68 this summer. Age is not related to the amount of humor needed.
Did you hear about the one in which the customer requesting tech support said "You mean my mouse needs batteries? But my mouse isn't even connected by a wire to my computer." (I luckily didn't say anything except "Yes." I then just looked at the ceiling.)
I think the humor, banter, etc. is exactly what the show needs. I enjoy the show. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!
