    TalkCentral-640

    In this packed episode of TalkCentral, your hosts Duncan McLeod and Regardt van der Berg talk in detail about Google’s I/O conference, looking at the upcoming Android L and Google’s push into smart watches and in-car technology. We also asked why some key things were missing from this year’s I/O, including Google Glass.

    Duncan and Regardt also chat the deal between MTN and Pick n Pay to bring low-cost banking and m-commerce to South African consumers. And Duncan provides his feedback on the opening of the new Imax theatre in Gauteng.

    Your hosts pick their products or apps of the week — Huawei’s Ascend P7 (Duncan) and the Session Buddy for Chrome (Regardt) — and tune in to find out who made the cut as this week’s winner and loser.
