Manage episode 402371200 series 3322861
This week on the Solid State Podcast, we’re trying something a little bit different, while shockingly still the same…
See we realize, very intentionally, this show covers a lot of ground. From big tech to tiny brands you’ve never heard of, game changing gadgets to video game controllers… it’s all over the map…
And much of the time, those stories are relatively one-and-done… Samsung announces a new phone, and people buy it… Canon refreshes a camera, and it’s shockingly similar to the last one… The tech giants unleash AI on the world, and the Cylons are born… and so the cycle continues!
Every so often, though, it’s not quite that simple… We’d love to truly predict the future, but what fun would that really be? So when a company actually surprises us and goes another direction, or a product undersells but over-delivers (or, sadly sometimes, the other way around…), the story isn’t over just yet!
Here we are then, with a new episode format that we hope you’ll like (or at least tolerate) and that we mostly-solemnly-swear not to over use… the idea of doubling back, checking in, and bringing things Full Circle to topics we’ve touched on already, but turned out to need a second look.
To kick things off, then, this week we’re checking in with Eric for an update on his ongoing journey with the FreeWrite family of “distraction free” typing products, we close-the-loop on last week’s Xbox “business update” announcements, Fuji finally updated its unexpected bombshell of a camera in the X100 series, and round things out with the latest from Palworld and how, somehow, they’ve managed to remain to-date un-sued…
So let’s go find out where these products and announcements really landed… buckle up, hang on…
