Dylan Tweney and Daniel Dumas tackle the hottest topics in gadget news this week. Top of the podcast: The ongoing saga of would-be Mac clone maker Psystar. Does the company really exist? Apparently, as several reviews of their products have started popping up, much to the surprise of those of us who tried, and failed, to get in touch with the company in April.

In addition, we discuss T-Mobile’s new 3-G service (which lacks data support — wtf?) and AT&T’s new MediaFLO service, which promises to bring television to your cellphone. Plus: reviews of the LG enV2 and Motorola Z9 phones.

All that, in an action-packed 12 minutes that you won’t want to miss. Oh, and did we mention we are now the #6 podcast in iTunes’ "Technology" category? Oh, yes we are. And we’re rising in the rankings. Tekzilla, we’re coming after you next!
