It’s Black Friday, which means that many of you woke up this morning at the crack of dawn, shrugged off your Thanksgiving food comas, and made your way to the dreary parking lots of electronic stores across the country. Right about now, you’re probably just waking up from your recovery nap — and there’s nothing better to get your sluggish mind back on track than this week’s episode of OMG/JK.
This week, we talk about The Daily, an iPad-only newspaper from News Corp that will reportedly be launching soon. We also discuss the latest iOS software release, which adds a slew of features to the iPad just in time for the holidays, including the aptly-named AirPlay.
And don’t forget Gingerbread, the upcoming release of Android that seemed like it should have launched this month, but is still MIA. But don’t fret — Google CEO Eric Schmidt did tease us with a glimpse of Near Field Communication, which could well make it worth the wait.
So grab a slice of leftover pie and sit back for a recap of the last week in tech — now with more facial hair than ever!
