Samcast episode 90: I’m A Doctor Jim not a podcaster!

On this weeks Samcast I dig through the feeds to find the slim amount of news that I can find because of CES week. I talk about one gadget from the event that caught my eye along with a competition to build a tricorder, the posibilty of web shooters, and the fact your touch screen may be more dangerous than you thought.
