It’s time for another Geek Troika! Mattie wasn’t able to make it for this episode, so we made a call to the bench and called up our old friend Chris to pinch hit. Yes, we know, he doesn’t have fully developed breasts [Ed. note: YET. We're talking to the doctors about this one.] but he can certainly hold his own against our beloved men.

Speaking of men…Watchmen premiered over the weekend, and the guys weigh in on the film, along with the trailers which alongside it.

Today’s intro music is Radio Days by Cohiba Playa. You can find more of their music at http://www.myspace.com/cohibaplaya.

• First story: An awesome netbook concept, a dual screen tablet!
• Second story: Zillion TV, yet another IP TV service, that aims sort of Hulu and Netflix, but only sort of.
• Third story: The continuing saga of Hulu and Boxee
• Fourth story: time shifting is saving Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles and Dollhouse.
