Clayton Morris on Twitter you can go to the chat room which I'm about to jump up here on now on line just a few seconds -- excited because today have a good friends from the 404. Over at CNET joining me today can't wait I'm very excited about this. -- Yeah -- Wilson tank. Jeff back -- you all from the world we're doing as always you guys -- so it does security lets you improperly. Took some convincing. No we we give out name tags here is security. Did they spelled it correctly. I'm Wilson tank that got you right and just minors yeah. Just you they got a -- Got to. I think that. -- like a few months that he never had passed in the building efforts that we're here and they never understood my name is don't you -- And they thought -- name -- Ramon."

" I don't remote forests and everyday have a stack of those cards and all -- not one of them was active on a -- Leave Morrison's look at nominee with -- athletic that your guys name doesn't want to buy them there. --"

" Neil Cavuto walked through the door 1 morning and -- and even -- was and he said what it was a humbling experience and it's that big sign that. -- With domestic talking about it. -- program. So we have so much to talk about today on personal gonna talk about a lot of video games because that's we do -- Ross going to be talking about some movies because you guys -- talking about movies so whenever I. We have to talk about what a poignant day of course John use -- to 59. So we have some clips we're gonna I would try to guess -- your favorite John Hughes movie. -- I see if I can pull out I got to get to -- So we'll get -- a little bit but we've also got a lot of tech news when he gets into our first talk about the big story Twitter going down on."

" I think it would normally I -- a little different. --"

" I think all that. -- call it back not FaceBook. Not quite going down on the but slowing up a little bit even FriendFeed. A lot of -- sort of went yeah yeah what happens -- it was a denial of service attack from some hackers but from whom and why will I --"

" Known. What you guys. -- Yes. -- a lot -- actually went down yesterday because they're all connected with. Where the twins would experience things we're gonna -- play to it but they never stop the it would that people were yesterday two people relate. Holly and it's helped thousands of people how good this groups."

" I would I don't. Because often what actually sort of sinister about it yeah well I didn't go easier to oversee that we are able to do everything revenues from."

" On the toilet of -- feel like I'm just reading these articles I can't talk about it anymore all other businesses -- relying on Twitter to actually get their message out and so this was actually crippling for a lot of businesses are here it's very to think how vulnerable. Twitter is the stuff this is a basic sort of thing hasn't gone for fifteen years done in an idealist attacks on -- the first time it's actually happened Twitter so what for the alert viewers as we try to keep it -- too techie here it is easy button here click here yeah. I denial of service attack this is what this was this is one of the most basic forms of hacker attacks it's very light it doesn't really do much other then. Deny you service to your favorite web sites right again what else is there to."

" Vote the way generally works is just a bunch of computers are taken over by hackers and they send they're called HTTP requests that's just like. Hey show me your website but they don't really want to see the web -- sent thousands and thousands of these in the service get. So Wilson did a good analogy I -- he said. It's like if you're getting so many phone calls that no one can get through the same time that basically pretty much what happens to -- and if there's nothing you can really do about it except to filter route -- addresses that are doing that. And it takes some time somebody you have to find out who's doing it and you know there's no way to really prevent it like there's no way to really prevent anybody from calling you again and again and again exactly you know."

" This is on the network it was a network timing out. So it would. If you've got this I saw this yesterday it would -- network time -- the server twitter.com is taking too long to respond instead of what we're seeing on the screen if the fail whale. Yeah. Well which had to be honest we have you seen the -- well recently not recently yeah passing is done some while he's lost late night at Dallas so it's just a failed. -- So yeah is it because there's because these server could be experiencing high demand -- temporary outage. And -- it wasn't a -- well so was ongoing and we're hearing about it it was almost like two days worth of this --"

" And it was really -- last night and you know the John Hughes thing didn't help. Right you see the second a celebrity guys twitters the most popular -- right thing. About yeah him. News was bad all throughout the whole day it was just really want my Twitter actually didn't go back up until 7 PM last night affecting -- dot twitter.com that's -- you -- your -- went back up last night what were you watching to make -- back."

" on the."

" I think it's well very quickly. At the offices and people from said I am each other well. Well yeah what you did someone actually sent -- Yeah. I not only that you know you see an interesting article. And -- Now people -- just like -- and meet involves let you know as the life actually in all seriousness I actually noticed FaceBook status. Yeah yeah we're definitely. That -- both Twitter and friends."

" Speed is a conversation source something that you know Michael Arrington and John Gruber also it was like an under used resource something that maybe could've caught on but what happened but it's. Pretty valuable if you actually use it that was also slowing down as well. But as you -- Allison. You know Twitter wants establish itself as this. Communications standard where were you shooting a stuff running in adult time. And it becomes more about the post -- does the article now by using Twitter is -- resource to get news and information that people. If it crashes -- of people turn."

" You're you know I think yesterday wouldn't really demonstrated was that people have been talking about Twitter being the next big thing and everybody is doing his blue -- everybody. -- yesterday killing Shaq you know Shaq joins right but I think yesterday when it really demonstrated with how irrelevant. Nobody's life changed. Little in the -- one of -- today and that's that I feel like Twitter has not changed the way that we did -- change the way that we've gotten. -- absolutely."

" It wouldn't you say though that you can -- your stream to the information you want so if you'll only want to hear about. Comic books and our people and that's based commenting on comic -- you're not jumping on -- times dot com -- recommendation jumping on other news sites. You might only be getting your news. From Twitter -- and one of my favorites is actually from new. For many years back of the game little but I. That's Arctic off my day but it'll work both ways are today. -- America. I want to get your facts and data that's all it could tell people to become the office and and that's all the talk and all day didn't have board meetings anymore Italy by the way -- on average this thing. And they go around the water -- they used to talk about sign -- and politics. Now the most talked about -- we are back to -- to America -- We're back yeah political play -- all -- us. Yeah. By the way I am posting to chat room and if -- you pick up your nose and you'd think it goes to the chat room is liable to look for everyone to weigh in -- and -- we're talking about for Oliver and it's out there because we're going to be talking about this. Are you planning on going to see GI GO it's -- movie it's a nerds should go retirement GI Joe. You guys you guys gonna see Georgia. One you -- for. -- You don't want it seriously come on again. I actually."

" I don't wanna see it most because it's marvelously. I really don't have my brain you know -- have -- to see well explode."

" Different Michael -- over there and interpret he says you know look it it's thirty minutes it's thirty minutes of blowing up stuff right at the beginning of the movie and a these movies. To me I just I'm not impressed anymore it's easier. You know which they -- because it doesn't look real anymore exactly I wish you could paid half price just for the special effects just have. Yeah. -- marginally for a little bit I would do that I read one review that said we are in this movie -- longing to see human moments like we saw on the clone wars. I can remember start where we didn't want to see those human rights because they were terribly active in it was fair practice and so no one wanted to see these guys in those touching heartfelt moments with a picnic with Natalie Portman. But I don't know that we want to see that in this movie I guess the theaters. There's some people there's an element of like myself who it's the greatest American hero iteration of GI GO with -- was a cartoon now this does not go back to 1960s the original GI Joe it's his. All of that the cartoon from the eighties and that some of the announcement meant to people and people arson have been terrible -- attention. Who really remembers what happened and yet you're never out of it and yeah the -- I didn't want -- all know is cool thing about it yet Huckabee fan of this show but I think there's some cartons that this should not be that big screen you know the judge though for me one of them -- under. As another one should never make it thinks it will I don't. It. Seemed like TI -- Life. We didn't -- let me. Or. Understand it because you know whatever you know the some characters I've talked my friend Mike -- Mike podcast Beasley buried yet they kicked -- It's shameless plug in. It's easy to down to catch up. It's easy to download and listen to the podcast no you know people like a barbecue that relate these gadgets yeah he's not going to be it but -- with -- Doesn't make any sense. Cobra commander with the silver mask but in this he's wearing some weird commander outfit -- look like the original cobra command okay. Obliged in the movie as far as going -- right. I didn't think that special -- on -- right. The original shows that public of solidity Campion drew joked that he not -- different that it. One PSA. And I hope I hope that another one apparently does don't quote from like Dennis Quaid -- a movie and -- can actually find -- where he actually said. Yes the way you know on not just powers that says something like that physical -- you know and that -- float her. -- it didn't mean. Right I don't know that I don't think he says knowing apple did you say and that surely they're like real American hero -- and apologized for the audience to. Well there's a story we talked about how they didn't want anyone screening the movie at a time right now this is the other big story which is that Paramount didn't want anyone screened the film at a time. Because I think they probably lost faith in journalists to actually tell -- given accurate representation of the movies here's the deal right. These journals -- go see the movie don't hit it it won't matter though because people still go see -- that but so does it matter anymore. We didn't seem a bit like the -- increased screenings for the well it. It matters for some -- enough for others a movie like transform it doesn't matter people and the blind you see them look at -- elected Vinci code that God's land Bryant didn't do excellent that's true. But I think. Yeah that's that's a good point about one and you know like -- the -- effect where people went to see it in droves and then -- have started to leak out on Twitter that it wasn't as strong as it could have been but you're seeing more and more predominant driver of the united. I don't start. Terrible tendency he knew that in its tail -- they like Kyra that I don't -- easily into it -- because -- some. Of course -- better care here it and like those movies are better spent watching them on YouTube like clips of the we -- it's."

" you to thank you that delicate transition -- we have a rundown of she'll run down stories in no particular order and seven. You can fire up this piece of viral video display a few seconds of this Chris Brown. The wedding dance video take a look at this program -- it's now. Again. You don't get on."

" Upsetting -- that was executives and it's that thing -- already seen over 35 million hits on line. That's -- it's 35 million hits and what's incredible about it is that it set the record company. And this was one of the big tech stories of the week it set a record company saying out you know -- and you think pull the music this -- if you use a popular song. In a video that you make. The record companies you know doesn't want it on there -- pull it down because you you know violating. There they're copyright to -- on there. So doing that they -- an opportunity which was come to those people say hey can -- three options pull it down. Take the music out and put something else in there or three it will put an -- They put that out there the song has been out for a year this popular last year. Because -- put it out of there for you click and download the song Chris Brown song. It shot to the top ten of iTunes this week's out back on the top ten of iTunes like a smart move finally from like a record -- It's weird -- it's worked. I don't want. Yeah on the Internet you know -- And I -- we also the other video as as a mock -- Mark -- of at all because that was so popular a bunch of guys got together and decide they're gonna make their own divorce version. You've got the video take a look at this was actually pretty. Courtroom about the core criminal files so that when has generated millions of hits as well and -- and they put the out of their that would as well they're making money that it's -- It just getting married guys here they actually have something or -- something that he's still my dad -- using -- we're gonna do the electric slide. Down in the eyes. But I love the old bogeys in the audience there and in the at the wedding. They're -- is yeah. Okay I'll I -- do you foresee."

" images that post videos if you check out directly it's buttons along with. That's an interesting use of ads in YouTube now finally be able to do."

" Just one know usually in with you obviously didn't -- it's the worst thing happening and why he wanted everything residents. English slightly if you -- if you hate celebrations like the coolest. It's it's going to be -- to -- a wedding it's gonna look exactly like --"

" because you love hockey so much -- some sort of hockey are gonna skate down the it's a bad thing. The staple of the music and letting it. Creative liberty and the output system and gets -- yet you tonight a report back -- you. He grew up on this as well you couldn't pick it up to say I don't -- ATF has -- assistant under special effects in my basement did."

" You're limited I don't remember as always good round of -- sound effects. That's true that he would us me at your --"

" All right do you see this story no more -- a coffee shops so. You love going to Starbucks is who's -- around The Wall Street Journal reported a number of coffee shops around the country are finally gonna get rid of their free Wi-Fi and that putting things over the the plug on the wall. City you cannot use your laptop I was -- an -- yeah."

" after the the end only the buries that knows the code. Yeah exactly let's start let's -- debate clips and a lot of other copies of me because it's for Internet and I think the whole -- Yeah -- free Wi-Fi I mean get it at Barnes & Noble free Wi-Fi at Barnes & Noble I."

" I disagree I really do is I remember the game you could go to the --"

" Yeah I'll put in a Starbucks. Hear people ordering if -- that there."

" I feel I will admit that I spent a lot of my off days they're working on other things I'm sitting here working on the show and stuff for FOX & Friends and I bring Atlanta also there for hours and coffee I think the big argument is that when people on laptops -- spend. You know four hours at a time -- one cup of coffee when it exit and have conversations nobody. That makes it does. Or maybe they should impose a time limit or something on the significant step backward for the Internet that they -- for coffee and it. Park Slope here in the city. He -- people just got to eat and -- against Tutsis sit down but since it's too bad -- no laptops have been allowed one particular issue between 11 AM to PM when -- 10 AM 3 PM -- peak time unless the customers eating and typing at the same time. I don't I would view that I would sit there and if they hope you know not. I just heard about I think it's ridiculous and I'm I'm gonna fight it's what you thought yeah. This New York -- Arsenault a number of places around the come and you're trying this. I'm but you know puts -- city welcome it Seattle coffee works of course Dartmouth has been largely which keep this in fact you know you have the card to go there. You get the free Wi-Fi -- there so I don't know probably just leave that Starbucks hero and go to the one you still. Yeah. And instead what will this -- for independent -- jobs. We don't want any more customers want to go to Starbucks that's what I'm saying like these little coffee shops I mean unless they're so easy like if they -- New York City but -- so inundated with customers I could see one and it. -- over tables more -- sit there for hours it wouldn't really matter."

" I mean if you want in those. Days when you do but he -- button looking for -- because."

" 90% since he got to scoped out before. Put it down. It. Got some idiot looking over your shoulder -- screen when that is the -- I."

" if you are getting married news cameras that they walked out to read -- old Johnny Cash. Should I respect that better than whatever -- walked -- he would if he intent that they want you hit rock. Those -- ball we've got them on the and cable and god knows why I wouldn't marry that. Point here in which -- waiting months. Haven't decided yet it's it's it's far away -- bidders."

" It and that's I had an actual suggestion for you. -- I don't let me go and on but Jackson that's another -- You something word conventional program about something like beaches beaches at all about that -- Richard -- And maybe a bit of excitement don't tell my mom she -- agree yeah. -- at a college kinda different outcome ago."

" Jesse. Catch up with some videogame developers out there I want you to take on new and you start tricky in DC can and I guess if I play them put I put it as well. Hello roll the video we'll talk about it here had a chance -- have been always -- developers out there sports Star Trek DAC and -- ship to ship. Combat game instead of -- role playing game check it out."

" Had been -- one of the developers on Star Trek DAC here the yeah. Paramount -- and good catch put away long enough to have you talk about your game is as I did did did things that lives -- now. -- you obviously we're gonna -- prizes -- you're working on this date that this is what's cool because -- love to start your game. Championship game here. Yes absolutely this is a Star Trek DAC it's available now on Xbox Live Arcade now becoming a PlayStation network next month in August. It's. It's a downloadable game for ten dollars on PlayStation network 109800 Microsoft points on Xbox Live -- And it's really an old school style pick up and -- Bob downs this year it's all about action. Capturing that sensitive -- It's giving players a chance to kind of -- and then. Experience that consultant. A -- role playing game SI wanted to like a large strategy game. It's -- the shooter games so what are we seeing happening here well right now I'm playing one of live we have. -- and I'm playing the PlayStation version now. And I'm -- one of those classes this is called the bombers are relatively small and fast chips that. And -- go ahead trying to get over here I'm on the federation side opposite. -- Stay alive brainchild I've ever stay alive long enough but we're glad to come back faster and -- give -- constitution champions. We got four of small portion classes here to support for it is a new -- is available exclusively on the PlayStation version. It was a Marbury does is it really tries to drive. Encourage players come -- level of teamwork minimizing. Support -- it doesn't have any offensive capabilities I didn't know violent disarray. Head for the hills but what I am trying to do here -- friendly teammate that I did get here that kind of keep alive. Support predictive -- ready but there's stresses there's a flagship overhears an AI flagship invited -- might actually. But this beam on an amateur -- be a lot harder snow and fights and has that level of my support for tonight actually targeted. More and more friendships in the same times I can get a formation flying around. Make it really tough to sell itself. Violent day. How undertaking to develop this game. While the -- and it's a kind of here. The Xbox version -- Well -- now we appreciate -- thanks so much for joining us today good luck with the game thanks very much appreciate it -- thanks so much."

" That is Star Trek."

" It's sort of like -- different modes too you can do it that capture the flag sort of thing where you. You take over a certain basic around -- and this -- Alina."

" these games where it's like all right so trying to do this -- strategy role playing -- game was saying you know what we wanted to back to -- blow stuff up with stuff like. But Super Mario -- bash. Half of respect he has respect but just -- stuff. Now."

" It's also good idea a lot what these developers are doing especially with -- time in games they're sort of bypassing the big box retailers you know. Publishing -- in on a disk and sending that. More downloadable games like that for cheaper they cut out the middleman sensibly that and that's probably a better idea -- games don't usually do will."

" But the idea -- and outage yet you like games -- now on every platform the EC play on that we and I asked you know I asked that he developers have a yeah has it motion controller because that's a big step up and Nintendo Wii now has became it has become and I've been seeing a lot of games where. We're seeing these ground up builds. For instance ghost -- for Nintendo Wii by all accounts. Probably the best version of that game available on any game platform because of it and just. Spotted over from. From Xbox or PlayStation 3. It took the ghostbusters game -- build up from the ground up for use with the week he actually playing the game and you feel like you're actually -- in the streams in real you know real life without actually having to think this'll do my house and it's it's dozens. -- sort yeah. And not roster. That's what video game is gonna be like with a sword fighting with the motion controls the safety and you have more accurate sense when you're sort of ran it -- is. Do you think the -- is becoming more of me. More of a real gaming platform in just like family fun with Wii Sports."

" That's debatable I mean. -- Xbox -- I'd like gotten in different I'm grateful -- that's what I tell people. -- gotta be in different. I think that that we need by itself is a great council the to have if you you know host -- accompanying you wanna play -- party gains. When it comes down to the hard core sort of -- you're not gonna get that experience necessarily. On the Wii alone usually need at 36 -- through to get that sort of AAA titles hard core experience but the way it's played great gains for the -- that sort of satisfied that. -- and for that we -- you don't actually have to move."

" It's definitely a lot of other games you can't spend five hours claimed that we like -- yeah you start to sweat oh yeah yeah it is true and even just place in the simple Wii Sports resort sure it even archery sweat -- just don't you yeah Google like -- have to pull my -- back. What -- people in my arm back and we're all afternoon."

" It's about the need I feel like it probably off -- kind of game. You're too and now this and see how can -- Tuesday. Two more in -- Red steel threads I got the -- that actually recently the newer red steel is that wasn't the original almost unthinkable that was the first one -- The problem with one motion -- which is this little accessory that pops into the bottom of the Wii remote. -- it promises us more accurate motion control over gains. So red -- one was sort of just like -- you lacked the remote -- you beat the game but that's okay it was much more 121 -- you know you're emulating the screens emulating exactly what you're doing with your -- yeah that much better experience."

" And I. Would play Wii Sports resort night here on -- on FOX & Friends analog phone with a knee the motion control me very precisely -- basketball down very very save them. I I thought this was interesting it could -- over Qatar who had. How many hours people are playing Nintendo Wii games and they broke it down by how many hours they're finding that people are playing as of July 1 while so. The average person playing. 68 hours and 51 minutes coming in at number one was super smash Brothers brawl which was released --"

" here this good in second on this list just goes to show you how brilliant Nintendo is the second on this list for most played animal crossing city full blown that played this game. You and they're admitting that it's. It's like it's almost like a -- yeah -- I mean it's like a virtual you create move gardening and but it's like forget to benefit small -- little you know little tiny characters and you it live in this like. Plush sort of garden area -- you can like go to different houses and check -- with people have conversations. Online and it is adorable. -- candidates again game I mean I'm not gonna play that's secular India for hours and sixteen minutes -- third fire emblem rate in dawn that I mean. You don't really I -- the gains popular but it doesn't get you know presents something like super smash yeah. Legend of Zelda twilight insurance. What on the list of -- with analysts Wii Sports. It analyst Mario Kart that's fantastic -- Super Mario galaxy super paper Mario Detroit prime."

" There you go now how does he listened to -- to me that we've lost their kids to be you. That's -- if you do an old man I honestly -- I think an eloquent but you know using Mario Mario. Positive -- you think these athletes who prepared ma the right way through Super -- We always thought it was remarkably. I'm from one from Philadelphia so I would stretch my -- and -- Horrible and across the street for me is Mario is pizza you're gonna become the those people -- you know what the creator of Super Mario that in itself is -- yard. I'm -- pretty good -- and speak English okay so I can't vote here tiebreaker Kim what -- it -- a market that's. And we'll probably. Hey -- by the -- didn't -- it exactly it's Mario Mario and let's talk about."

" I -- CDC universe online because got a little behind the scenes of DC universe online -- a huge comic book character there it couldn't be a better. -- coming together both comic books and video games check it out."

" Hi this the moment they're waiting for DC universe online here at Sony Booth. -- a little behind the scenes what this looks like I. This stuff works pretty incredible. -- is gonna be talking to us here and certainly Chris is going to be driving this thing. West basically. I see going to be showed us a little bit BC universal mind you right yes -- and tell us about five days in DC Harris online is a massively multiplayer action. -- really what you wanna be able than you are what we want it is really kind of allow you to build your own legacy as -- there are super villain in the DC universe so you start out as a generic sort of superhero wanna be right place that is -- you superheroes have appeared in in travels about them. We're working really closely with the writers at DC comics like Jeff Johnson -- then. Constantly seasoned executive creative director of the project and then come up with the the reason why don't SEC -- suddenly springing up in the it's just stay here I wonder if there's going to be some sort of easy come exciting perhaps all right so we're looking at here so we're looking right now. As in the -- star labs. There's a big -- battle going on. Basically S or less per LB -- aware of it is is a place where all these crazy sciences them do these experiments and something always goes. In this case there is senate meeting agenda was gonna release paris' release -- as our last. ID -- you find the source of vampires. The release it -- Metropolis yeah. -- needs to go -- I'm the bad guys from releasing. Did you eventually get to a point when you're actually able to run into Batman and Superman -- larger character's -- yeah absolutely absolutely as -- right now we have bizarrely wonder woman in this battle right now. We have you know harlequin. In all those guys -- games is building that that relationship with his iconic characters because in some ways they're -- touchdown. Yourself by itself as you progress you might actually get invited into the jail at some point. -- build up you get invited to justly it's. You get to show your medal that point yet have. The good -- bad news is you have less -- bad manners of when you first how to get into -- like maybe distress me you know these bears are coming in and I can contact you -- yeah pain you know -- watching. Communities clean and then later on my kind of like getting -- as you TDs musicians. He might actually munition where they can do something that he can't do himself because he's busy can't be everywhere at once you know like -- did investigate some -- and some humanize the dots. And then as you gonna build -- that that now. Relationship with them then -- may even eventually sponsor -- Actually get into the jail and -- Wes thanks so much for giving us a look at BC universal I appreciate it thanks so much."

" All right that was DC universe online lot of fun you can check it out on foxnews.com there's anymore information you want on that game -- on. And if you build up and it's fully interactive so -- playing online with people and you don't have I wanted to be that champion of sort of had a sort of like bush loan will -- India become more professional. -- behind it there you -- it was well you're just like generic hero what was it like Robin like them so. -- a generic -- or something like that this. All right you can pick -- birdie somewhere -- gotta create and people start respecting you more and sort of -- down due to this sort talks down usually. -- how did -- like a little dialogue like little things to go and and and take off. Opt the program let's talk about boxing here sprint just rolling out this week yesterday the big announcement and -- rolling out. -- doing a little and boxing's here for back to school. Up 49 dollars for the new sprint. -- from Samsung 49 bucks for this thing. Now the deal with this its -- its eco friendly. So the idea is all the packaging is made from recyclable materials the plastic is made from recycled plastic even the ink is made from soy ink -- and you can even drink being important and what it's -- There it is there's little bad boy it's -- full slide out QWERTY keyboard that -- small would that. -- the colors of durable evidence as it normally -- slide down and the back here you can see what this is this bothers me. This likes this real estate here we saw this on the home which have a little email me -- yeah."

" And and -- is don't yet know the comfort that what does this witness to music awaits should be something cash. Some sort of calculator so yeah. -- or at least keep like embarrassments. Is trying to get -- or like it hands. I would instantly by Pez dispenser -- It works out bat out of that not a bad buys it holds all the pomp and yet it's smaller than -- visa next. -- Right and ultimately that it is it is definitely here on the back years on the home yeah it might make up and now -- like -- all.

But 49 bucks you know. If you're like one of those people who drops a phone line breaks a phone line like Justin. -- and a quarter.

Almost disposable. The what did you -- have them go get it instantly claim so you don't you just chuck it in --"

" anything results you know the to a --"

Apple could be giving away the iPhone with -- can -- that work on yeah if you sign their contract and all of the apps that you're buying all through the eyes to the iTunes store. They're making them. If we do an accident they're making that money back in drove. Yeah you can totally get that money back your apple wanted to give those things -- the first rolled up 599 bucks -- people line. -- really want to get rid of that -- Scuffle tablet rumors we're just talking about out here that will do little on boxing -- the new Kodak TI eight which I love. -- with that all night.

Unveil new design but -- I was honest forms known in terms of on its ability but he video and music -- the Mac and too much more than capacity and -- men -- capacity and our drama a lot of against is from the tech news if there's. The problem -- tablet. But what most people are saying is that it's probably it's been an oversized iPod touch and yet it metabolism misnomer because it's still have a keyboard. But you'll be able to flip around it's my yeah -- like faction. It is convertible tablet. The windows tablet PC so so we'll probably just be giant iPod touch with them virtual keyboard and they're talking about. It being in new movie. You expect regular -- under house watching."

" and -- movie houses would get behind necessity is the content provider because this could presumably be something really great you can -- over the back of driver's seat when you're driving put it like some sort of -- that would. -- It's got a good batter of the got to be really cheap if the try to compete with the netbook market example and it's under 60. The part yeah 600 gallons on the view this sweet spot I'm hoping you because. There's something psychological laws spanning -- for sure but yeah. Well you know and and Ross Rubin had a great piece here today -- what if you know. -- tablet itself which he called BI he called the -- pat. So what it's not you know it really tablet of all that really the replacement for apple TV. What if it's not that device would have -- is that -- you -- just -- on to something in your in your living -- it becomes your next viewing experience is not something you're just having. You like the apple TV housed in your living room -- you carry around with and -- profit up in the -- right on it. We're seeing them pop it out to a TV as well idea."

" That was actually one of the sort of original criticisms -- apple TV. As you can replicate most of its functionality. -- just using oracle iPod and a cable exams that what you should do TV and a pretty much -- all the videos and -- that are offered I've on TV. And this is probably them you know putting two and two together and saying hey you wanna carry around that stuff. On the loss of one browse the Internet and --"

" Wondering is is it's gonna be it laptop replacement -- with netbooks you're supposed to have it in addition to another computer room that's what about that. Welcome respite care laptop I'm wondering if this is supposed to be its. Your own autonomous. I see that you you know we know probably does not be phone service room Levy you know if they have."

" With all the new apple products everywhere just waits for them to tell us what we need it. What's but we also know that they've been looking at according to apple insider -- some other sources saying they've been looking over the past two years this has been Steve Jobs pet project. He's been looking at screen -- between. Four inches all the way to twelve inches in finally settled on ten inch display the apple tablet so it looking at all these displays over the past two years. They're probably watching what's going on this basis what apple does succeed in Watson. And any sort of jump and -- hand them the market is pregnant for. You know what it's about to give birth when the market's about to --"

" An engine I don't -- and -- that the Carolina today. -- You bookmark. Because the -- yeah -- is finally sort of break out of the tech community. And you know the mothers just soccer moms grandmas and get the Kindle and the big criticism -- the Kindle. It's black and white."

" the -- no color not touch interface and so if yeah we've been hearing reports you know -- butler -- another day another rumor but. You know will there in fact be some sort of an. And to get all of these books we see on the Kindle without digital restriction."

" I mean would you be surprised the data and that's the thing elect and the I -- I think there's something that's why everything you've ever you know I guess it's almost predictable and -- was there was interest in them a couple of days ago actually that. Apple is trying to expand the iTunes -- again the whole account to everything on because it used to be before. You can use your PayPal account on almost any web site well now that apple so what you can buy movies my music you buy apps now wondering just expanded -- everything else."

" Right but a great point because they've already got that infrastructure there why not that's from the real stories of success of the iTunes store it's not so much these other. This other stuff in the united source if the destination that you go to iTunes or girls -- still on -- new Kodak CIA who shot. Chela in just was announced last week this is the new high definition camera from Kodak it's a video camera a lot like the flip if you're familiar with the flip which we of course we've shown out -- on the show before. This -- full 1080."

" Give it a good point about what you do that he had. Besides I mean that it's it's it is bigger than I and I thought it was going to be but it's still ahead on this -- just got a few few minutes ago here. -- Us. And -- so you can do 720. 1080 K right -- actually got a four. A way for you yet you actions haven't won sixty -- if you didn't -- sports -- Of differently and do slow motion on the that you SB -- No I think that is -- that is what this out and you can actually do the USB dongle on the side as well as. You know doesn't have inherent memory. So you're having put it micro SD cards yeah. Eyewitness who like this because the thing with the clintons have come to open -- an upgrade exactly. Well one of the great things I'm really excited efforts is being out of comic con shooting running around -- ought to be pieces. It has external Mike. That's just fantastic so you can actually have that yet flip does not have that on here although that does happen native."

" Hard drive space so you can flip ultra HD holds two hours of video that you haven't put an SD card in here which is not included in the price. But. You know I think this was a really smart move for them -- video looks fantastic and this seems to be the future although. What's the difference between the iPhone video the iPhone three yes now shooting video of this -- that the Mike -- you can actually plug in a lapel Mike. And -- you need to carry around big hand held camera."

" When he is in the deal this is going to be -- that opportunity and time. I'm surprised they haven't really."

" He wanted to do magazines that do that -- pretty impressive -- those are what tuchman -- 500 and this is under 200."

" Yeah 179 bucks -- a publisher of the it is going to be -- I think that would require apple but external storage. Brian and even shooting just a few minutes of video -- with a nasty -- one gigabyte SD card holds about ten minutes of footage last. Now you know if you're shooting it full 1080. -- and -- it's it's. -- I mean just as -- reference comes in a much different colors to the screen things. It's good question."

" It's an and the things a little bigger they are but what's great about these kind of cameras though especially. Is if you're really -- that's that's what these themes of her here on. As a software built right into the device you know. Installing computers in his. Well you're in -- in minutes your videos on YouTube you probably not been really wanna do a lot of anything online these videos because they use the compression that the -- tension. Kind of difficult to an on the home -- giant workstation. -- program."

" It's aggressive but they offer software built -- I think -- you and you would -- I don't know from the government has a good. Indeed you also the HDMI out Tuesday night to finish out -- how that right -- TV right now don't wanna have to edit -- wanna show you shot that data between. If that wouldn't use it right back and he played so there you go that's the -- the -- just announced a last week. Great back to school -- by the way 170. And that's that one is that.

" I like 81. -- 91 he just pumped out and classic after classic tying him up -- a little bit earlier is that. You know John Hughes he was still making movies but. Not quite as I -- iconic as these don't.
