Episode 2 of TechCentral’s TalkCentral podcast is live. SA’s first business technology podcast is hosted by TechCentral editor Duncan McLeod and deputy editor Candice Jones and is a weekly wrap-up of the big technology stories we’ve covered over the past week.

In our second episode — the show now has its own jingle — we talk about what was arguably the busiest news week on the tech front this year. We give our views on:

The acquisition by Japan’s Nippon Telegraph & Telephone Corp of Dimension Data
MTN’s mega empowerment deal
Communications minister Siphiwe Nyanda vs his director-general, Mamodupi Mohlala
Telkom’s settlement of its dispute with Telcordia
Cell C selling Virgin Mobile
Leo Baxter selling his entire stake in IT distribution giant MB Technologies
