news nz: Engadget Podcast 277

The Engadget Podcast believes in the future. And for each future to shine more brightly than the one that came before it, the present must do its part to fill its future with knowledge. Knowing this, we've voluntarily blacked out this podcast with the indomitable Marks-a-Lot of education -- education about education, and the derivatives of nesting education within itself. RIYL C-SPAN, Mad Money, Hackers, Bad Lieutenant. The Engadget Podcast approves this message.

Host: Tim Stevens, Brian Heater, Darren Murph
