    Three hundred recordings later, the ZA Tech Show is still around. Joining Brett Haggard in this historic episode are TechCentral’s Duncan McLeod, ITWeb’s Jon Tullett and the Mail & Guardian’s Ben Kelly. They share news and opinions, and have a few laughs — just like the old days.

    The topic list includes:

    • The Galaxy S5 (and the general state of smartphones today)
    • Nashua Mobile’s decision to close its doors
    • MTN’s lowered call rates
    • Microsoft Office Online for the Chrome Web Store
    • Johannesburg’s Wi-Fi plans

    The team’s technology picks (and pick-ons) of the week are:

    • The Galaxy S5 (pick-on) and the Journey application framework (pick) from Jon
    • The Alcatel 2000 from Ben
    • The 11 000mAh Lenmar Helix portable back-up battery from Duncan
    • The ZA Tech Show (what else?) from Brett

    Stream the show:
