Talkcast tonight 10PM EDT: Japan relief & iPad 2 It's Sunday night, so it's talkcast time again. While we'd love to spend the entire hour talking about the launch of the iPad 2 and the release of iOS 4.3, obviously there are some bigger things to think about.
Just a few weeks ago we were sending best wishes to our friend Layton Duncan in Christchurch, New Zealand after that city suffered a major earthquake. Now, our thoughts are with all our Japanese readers & contributor Rick Martin as that country deals with the aftermath of earthquake, tsunami and other consequences. I encourage any members of our Japanese audience to join the show tonight and let us know how you're doing. We also encourage everyone to consider contributing to Japan's earthquake relief.
To participate on TalkShoe, you can use the browser-only client, the embedded Facebook app, or download the classic TalkShoe Pro Java client; however, for maximum fun, you should call in.
