Gadget Prices Are Getting Ridiculous

This week, the crew spoke about everything from Samsung price hikes to 3D printed golf clubs. Along the way Marques and David talk about their experiences using the iPhone Air and Andrew gets excited that Google finally defined back button hijacking as spam. Plus, there's no GoPro cameras and a bunch of updates from past news stories. It's a long one!
