Engadget Podcast 313 – 10.12.2012

If you’re looking for the latest news on desktops, hi-fi home stereo components, or landline-enhanced telephonic equipment, you won’t find it on this edition of the Engadget Podcast. We’re all portable: cameras, phones, and computers that you can take with you anywhere you please are our specialty this week. Oh, except that new Playstation, which is so slim we tried to slip it in our pockets on the way to the gym so we could play Lollipop Chainsaw on the elliptical. Didn’t work out so well.
