An EXTRA-LONG show (sorry about that), but totally worth it. Guy finally gets his iPad while the UK and other regions get delayed again (HINT: it’s most likely Guy’s fault!). We also go over some listener feedback from Kevin Bush and our very own John Nemo!. We welcome Steve Stanger of theMac Attack podcast and Mac Roundtable podcast. He talks about starting his own podcast and the three of us talk about backing up your computer, when we switched from the Classic Mac OS over to OS X, what the heck ever happened to Mac User Groups, and iPhoto.

Guy talks about his total fail at securing an iPad 3G last Saturday. The ENTIRE Washington D.C. area Apple Stores were completely sold out! Will Gaz EVER be able to buy an iPad in the UK?

Phil Paxman sends us a thank you winning the MacAlly contest and educates the G-Men on just where the heck Urbana, Ohio is

We discuss how a lot of the major sites are starting to move away from Flash for video and some of possible problems that h.264 may bring in the future. Flash however is still all over the internets with games and animated ads.

Could Apple’s refusal to allow third-party tools for making apps for the iDevices get them into trouble with the Department of Justice or the Federal Trade Commission? Lastly, could the very openess of Google’s Android OS splinter their market for hardware and software?

Guy and Gaz discuss the wild and the weird this week including the sad death of the 3.5-inch Floppy which Sony announced they would stop making next year and the first Malware associated with the iPad…sort of.

Steve Jobs answers a question about an OS X App Store with a short and distinct “Nope”, but is that the whole story?

Need some of Adobe’s CS5 programs but are a little light in the wallet? We discuss a bunch of alternatives to Adobe’s software that may get you most of the way there.

Guy is planning to go to the Clarendon, Virginia Apple Store on iPad day April 3rd to talk to the early adopters and ask them why they’re getting an iPad. Gaz and Guy talk about Gaz’s sister’s problems with her HP laptop with Vista (because Vista just SCREAMS quality!). Guy recommends Windows 7…say WHAT?!?

More build-up to the iPad and Gaz says he’s buying one when they’re available in the UK, but Guy says he’s holding out.
