Engadget HD Podcast 278 - 12.13.2011
The DirecTiVo has arrived, and most shockingly, the world has not ended before we get a chance to talk about it. There's plenty of new tech on deck for this week's podcast, as the new Xbox 360 dashboard has finally rolled out, 4K displays are hitting the streets and the Logitech Revue finally received an upgrade to Honeycomb. Speaking of Google TV, Eric Schmidt had a bold prediction at Le Web 2011 -- press play to see if we're buying what he's selling.
