Episode 249: iPod Touch, AirPods, and FIDO

Apple has officially discontinued the iPod Touch. Dave and I talk about the history of the iPod and why it makes sense to call it quits on the product. We also talk about AirPods Pro and Max this week. Both devices are rumored to be updated this year, but what does that mean and what would the right price be for the products. Apple, Google, and Microsoft have all committed to support for FIDO—Dave tells us what that is and why it's important.
