Fifty. It's the golden anniversary number, the measuring post by which successful marriages -and podcasts- are judged. And while we plan to celebrate many more anniversaries of the Pocketnow Weekly, we thought we'd mark this occasion with a small thank-you to the community: an LG Optimus G giveaway. The dead-simple details on that giveaway are contained in this post. Before you go, though, fire up episode 050 on your favorite listening device to hear The Original Triad of Brandon, Anton, and Michael talk everything from Motorola's flashy new logo to Samsung's un-flashy new ATIV. Everything from iOS 7's new back gesture to the sad state of retail electronics stores. All that, plus more Nokia EOS/Zoom/1020 talk and some long-overdue listener mail, after the break. You've worked hard all week; slake your thirst for slacking with the soothing sounds of scrumptious tech talk. Today's installation of the Pocketnow Weekly podcast is here for your listening enjoyment. Send feedback, questions, and requests to podcast [AT] pocketnow [DOT] com.
