We’re informally calling it the Edgecast until we get sued by someone. In this episode, Andrew reflects on one month of Palm Pre ownership, Jesse complains about his difficulties in acquiring a new iPhone, and we debate the relative merits of Twitter as a “serious” communications platform.

Also, we didn’t mention it during the show because we are incompetent, but if you have any questions, complaints, or other feedback you can e-mail us, tweet us, or just leave an old-fashioned comment on this post.

Full show notes after the jump.
