While Peter was off gallivanting around Los Angeles with his new AOTS crew, CommunicAsia left us in a wash of

cellphone-related madness, including bits on Sony Ericsson’s (disappointing) new W600 Walkman phone launch, the V1150

possibly coming to Cingular, and Sprint’s big EV-DO rollout. So if you’re into cellphones, this is the podcast for

you—and if you’re not, we’ve got some nice bits in there about messin’ around with Orb, DittyBot, and the Engadget

reader meetup this week! So, did we miss Peter around the office? YEAAH!

well as some serious speak about Akimbo, IPTV, and video anytime, anywhere. So join us for the Engadget Podcast 30,
