And then last night on 10 O’Clock Live was quick to jump on the iPad 2 launch (who DOES applaud a cable?!):

Apple launch events must induce a strange mix of hysterical laughter and violent face palming in the Brooker household. I bet Konnie Huq’s got an iPad though.

They resume service in April,  Adam writes on their official blog:

“I can’t wait to get back to our show on Saturdays, I’ve really missed doing it. Not that I haven’t been every bit as busy as Joe. I’ve created several new filing systems for my CD’s and DVD’s, successfully reunited over 20 odd socks with their partners and learned to understand the language of ants (though I’m finding Decs more of a problem). It’s been fun but I’m looking forward to talking rubbish and playing brilliant music with Joe again.”

If you’ve never listened, you’re too late, they’re taking a break for a few months. But here’s a snippet of what you’ve missed… (you can still catch some of their podcasts in iTunes if you’re an iPod person). You can also catch Adam at the regular BUG nights at the National Film Theatre.
