This week Ben Bajarin joins Ken to dissect and debate the digital living room. Are cable companies the problem or the solution? And is Netflix the dark horse in the running? Plus the Hearst Corporation makes a play for the paperless newspaper. What’s that smell? It’s Mac OS Ken: Day 6!

This week Ken ties up a few loose ends with Ding Wen’s dad, dodging the Dellphone bullet, and more on Microsoft retail. Plus a conversation with August Trometer about why things that get approved get approved for the App Store, the short shelf-life for apps, and an annual refresh schedule for Apple hardware. Just under the wire on the east coast of the U.S… this is still Day 6.

This week Ken talks with Ge Wang – CTO of Smule (Sonic Mule, Inc.) about the iPhone App Ocarina, his company’s mission, and what the plan to do with the $3.9M in funding they just received. Next up, David Spark (http://sparkmediasolutions.com) discusses Microsoft chasing Apple into retail and smartphones. We round out the day with Ernie Varitimos (http://zacharybass.com) and his attempts to demystify the roller coaster that is Apple stock. Table for three guests and you right this way.

This week, Ken talks to YOU! Sadly you can't talk back. Well... you can, but Ken can't hear you, unless you call the Mac OS Ken Warm Line at (716) 780-4080. But I digress. Topics this week to include - Bashing a 9-year old - Palm gets another Apple guy - A Dell smartphone makes someone else sad - A past future realized - Laptop Obsolescence - 25 things about Ken. Remember that time Woz was on the show? And the time Greg Grunberg was on? Yeah. Hold onto that won't you?
