Jim Dalrymple and host Chuck Joiner share some laughs as they review The Beard Party at WWDC before getting down to business to discuss the latest challenges to the iPad from Google and Microsoft. The thinking (or lack thereof) behind the Nexus and Surface, whether they represent serious alternatives to the iPad, and Apple’s stance on green technology are examined. Jim then talks about the origin of his podcast, Amplified.

Ted Landau puts a bottom line on Apple’s WWDC announcements, both hardware and software, before taking us on a speculative journey into a possible future about how Apple’s hardware and software could develop. Many have been talking about OS X and iOS converging, but Ted adds a new wrinkle with the consumer and pro lines taking separate paths. Find out about his detective work and how he came to this conclusion.
