Ted reveals some stunning numbers on the potential costs of using data when crossing the pond, and how he plans to deal with it. While not as important as some items on Apple’s agenda, the hacking and cheating going on in Apple’s Game Center statistics is also getting under Ted’s skin; he explains why, discovers why one particular high score number keeps showing up, and voices his thoughts on why this needs to be fixed. Finally, Ted discusses his latest favorite iPad app, and why one feature should be looked at by Apple for the Mac OS.

Switching sides, Tonya also provides some perspective on these changes from the advertiser and consumer perspectives, names her favorite WWDC announcement, and what we will remember about iOS 5 in the distant future.

If you’re moving to the cloud, you probably are paying attention to the personal hot spot option for your iPhone from AT&T; Ted and Chuck Joiner discuss the offering, and their frustration with the thinking behind the plans offered. Ted also provides all the gory details of installing a solid state drive (SSD) in his Mac Pro, along the benefits and the costs of the project.

The biggest addition is Thunderbolt; Jim walks us through the exciting capabilities of this new interface, what you’ll be able to do with it, and why it doesn’t make your existing hardware obsolete. On the software side, Apple released FaceTime for the desktop…for $.99. Jim addresses the furor over the price and why it is largely meaningless.

In the dispute over Flash-based development tools for the iOS, did Apple fold, or make a sound business decision. Jim has some thoughts on that, as well as Yahoo’s disingenuous position on Apple’s iAd platform.

Note the word “music” because video, both taking and watching, is now a think of the past on all but the iPod touch. Ted discusses the return of buttons to the iPod shuffle, and the loss of them on the iPod nano, whether a touch screen really makes sense at that size, and how Apple is posturing these devices for the future. Ted and host Chuck Joiner also delve into the new Apple TV, the market for online video, frustration with the cost of cable, and what Hollywood and the cable companies are missing. Ted wraps up by providing perspective on Apple’s new music social network, Ping, what works and what doesn’t and for whom.
