It's been a bit of Mr. Space Javelin's Wild Ride through this asteroid belt of tech news, cadets, with a crazy mix of good news, bad news, weird news, and a few orbits around the planet Mondo Bizarro for extra hijinx! In the US, the Senate voted quite unexpectedly to override the FCC, but the fight for right just moves to the House, so keep using your comm ports to beam your position on this crucial issue back to the homeworld. Intel sorta-kinda releases Cannon Lake, and it's Samsung vs Apple season again, not to mention other lawsuits to deal with. On the music front, Apple Music doing great, Spotify not so much, Tidal is officially beleaguered, and the HomePod is -- you'll be shocked to hear -- not the next iPhone. The ship further careens like a smuggler in hyperspace between news of improvements in the iOS apps of Hulu and DirecTV (the latter of which still has that crazy Apple TV deal going on!) to Microsoft Surface fails and rumors; from Apple winning Best Displays Ever to LG's G7 camera gets its bokeh kicked by the iPhone X; and from the recovery of a long-lost Steve Jobs speech at MIT to an utterly astonishing report about Apple versus Amazon in terms of profits (hint: there's a clear winner). There's also our usual assortment of myths to bust, rumors to debunk (or shrug, or hope is true), insanely overpriced "special" iPhones (with bonus gratuitous mention of the recent royal wedding), and utterly delightful news on the Nintendo front. All this and the endless supply of cheap laughs that fuel the ship, cadets, so strap in for a freewheeling, rudderless ride on the Space Javelin!

Facebook and Google have shoved human society's sled down a steep slope of cyber security and artificial intelligence that we must now carefully navigate as a global community.44:32 Tech Bytes: A "smart" diaper to alert caregivers of #1 or #2 downloads, the new OnePlus 6 smartphone packs bleeding edge specs into a very reasonably priced package, and Intel has finally begun production on the new 10nm manufacturing process code named "Cannon Lake".Talk to me!

Technically it was kind of a slow news week, cadets, but that just gives the trusty crew of the Space Javelin more time to dig in deep and pick fights with the locals! Grayshift discovers that payback's a ... um, bear ... Apple officially kills off its AirPort lineup, Intel delays Cannon Lake (again), but the Supremes (the judges, not the singers) come through for patent holders. There's a few security alerts to hand out, and figures to go over, so remember to bring your astro-sliderules, cadets! Also on this week are mysterious surges in both Apple TV viewing hours and our podcast download figures (coincidence??), Lexus gets wise to CarPlay, Bandsintown adds Apple Music, Spotify sets out new lures, iTunes (and Apple Music) arrive for Windows 10S users (both of you!), Mike and Charles take apart a bunch of oddball stories and seedy claims, examine some recent cool hardware, and lambaste Amazon's newest, dumbest plan to break into your personal space. Yeah, pick a fight with Jeff Bezos! Brilliant plan! Stock up on space popcorn, we're rare wild Pokemon now!

There's a lot of detail out now about the Apple TV 4K and of course the iPhone 8, so Mike and Charles wade into the thick of it and pull out all the good stuff for you, even ahead of this week's special guest! Apple recently got the honor of the iPhone 8 and 8 Plus being named the world's fastest smartphones (by a country mile, we might add), and that's before they've even tested the iPhone X. In addition, the new iPhones also got the best-ever marks given to smartphones from the revised DXO benchmarks (which, though widely regarded, are not scientific). There is also, as predicted, a teardown report -- but there's not much to say there, the innards (apart from the remarkable A11 Bionic) are largely the same, albeit with the notable fact that these new iPhones are doing so much more even with a (slightly) smaller battery. But wait, it's not *all* about the iPhone! The crew also go over the facts on Intel's latest delay (the fourth) of the Cannon Lake chips and beyond (not great news, sorry to say), and look into a "caveat emptor" situation with regards to AppleCare+ costs (suffice to say, avoid breaking the back glass on these new iPhones). There's also some updates on Qualcomm versus Apple that are probably good news for Apple; some insight on Google's acqui-hire of HTC's Pixel engineering team (a key asset HTC were fools to let go of), along with the continuing benefits of Apple's ecosystem versus that of Android (or Windows, for that matter); and a caution about using non-MFi approved Qi chargers with your new Apple gear. And that's just the first half!! We take a break from all the news to welcome our special guest Don Klees from Acorn TV, a streaming video service that focuses on the best TV (and some movies) from outside the US but primarily in the English-speaking world (the UK, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and more). At $5 a month, if you enjoy PBS-type programming you should probably check it out. From there, we have a lot of news related to the Apple TV 4K, starting with Google's decision not to support VP9 (their 4K codec) on the Apple TV 4K (or the Mac); good news that iTunes redemption codes (seen on some HD and 4K Blu-rays) work for streaming 4K versions of the film on Apple TV 4K (but no downloading); the very quiet change from Apple to allow iTunes movie renters to watch the films over (up to) 48 hours instead of the previous 24 once you'd started viewing it (you can hold on to the film for up to 30 days if you haven't gotten around to starting to watch it yet); and the surprising killing of the Videos app on iOS 11 in favor of the TV app, which finally has a purpose for non-Apple TV owners. There's also news that live news and live sports will be coming to the TV app in the near future. Whew! We wrap up this super-dense hour with a quick look at some interesting ARKit-based app for iOS 11; a new payment system that uses your veins (what?!); and issue a shout-out to recent cadet recruit Horvath from Hungary, who wrote us a lovely fan letter. All this and (believe it or not) a bit more, so bust out the hip-waders, cadets, it's gonna get more than knee deep aboard the Space Javelin this time!
