    Episode 940

    DateOctober 16, 2009

    Podcast Awards Nomination
    Voting for nominations for the Podcast Awards closes on 18 October, this Sunday.  Go to podcastawards.com to nominate the Daily Giz Wiz (URL http://twit.tv/dgw) for the People's Choice award.

    The Original Cruzer
    The original SanDisk Cruzer was announced at CES 2002, and was more like a USB (1.1) SD card reader, than the built-in flash thumb drive of the current Cruzer lines.

    First Computers
    Alex Lindsay's first computer that he owned was an Apple IIe, which his father bought him.  Dick's was an Atari 800.

    Brooking Disappointment
    James Brooks bought the Motorola S805 Bluetooth DJ Stereo Headset after listening to Episode 927.  A cable required for charging was missing from his package.  Being a gadget nut he was able to use another charger.  At the hugely discounted price the headset was going for, James was willing to brook the slight disappointment.  In any event, James is a dedicated listener and looks forward to another thousand episodes of the Daily Giz Wiz.

    A Gadget Fanatic
    Bill Gaines was a bit of a gadget fanatic himself and, like Dick, was prone to falling prey to bargains and discounts, including the Casio TE2500 Dictionary Watch (Episode 45).
