Excluding our audio-only podcast at CES last month, this is our first cross-site, cross-platform Mobile Nations Podcast of 2012. On this show Phil, Derek, Daniel, Rene and myself discuss RIM's new CEO and what it means for BlackBerry in 2012, the unstoppable Android, iPad 3 vs. Windows 8 tablets, Chinese working conditions, and apps and your privacy. This is Mobile Nations!
