Just 3 hours before the launch of the iPhone OS 4 from Apple, the TWIA crew are back without Mike Foong and John Lim. Instead, we have two special guests tonight: Michael Smith from Yahoo Southeast Asia and Ben Scherrey from Proteus Technologies (Thailand) who come on and share with us their thoughts on the Apple iPad and the bandit iPad clone from China, the recent news about attempted suicides of workers coming from FoxConn, the company which manufacture all these devices, the Phone OS wars in Asia and the survival of JooJoo within the near future. While on these topics, we also talk about our coming live show in Barcamp KL, the Geeks on the Train, and most importantly, the Echelon 2010 happening on 1st and 2nd June.
