Gadget Lab Podcast #43: Nikon D90, Palm Treo Pro, Final iPhone 3G Survey Results

Gadget Lab Podcast logo

In this week’s Gadget Lab Podcast, Dylan Tweney, Daniel Dumas, and Brian Chen talk about the first big-time DSLR camera with HD video recording capabilities, the Nikon D90. With eye-Fi geolocation compatibility and new image transfer options, the D90 is one of the most hotly anticipated gadgets of late 2008.

In addition, they review the new Palm Treo Pro, and go over the final reports from the Gadget Lab’s iPhone 3G survey. The final tally reports that Europeans have the fastest speeds, American have the most dropped calls, and 3G towers are being overloaded all over the country.

Finally, they pass on some rumors of a Nokia WiMax phone, and Brian goes trolling for a date with a certain Apple worker.
