Augmented Reality is the next big thing to hit tecnology as WebTV as shown some great uses for it. Being a fan of The Daily Show I saw how the US News Networks used it to cover the Presidential election. I love Honda in general; they make the best car adverts, their Clarity CCX car seems to be the starting point for hydrogen fuelled cars and now their IQ website. Also, my friend loves playing with her Eyepet, no not a juvenile euthamism, but software on the Playstation 3. Shame to hear about the possible problem of such a basic thing as phone reception to happen on the iPhone. I was beginning to like it. Right I'm going back to an alternate reality and dream of me dating Dionne. Hey a fella can dream can't he.

The gadget show seems a bit one sided by only focusing on the iphone and it's apps. Stating it is the most desirable smart phone out there is an overstatement. Please provide some more air time to Andriod phones and apps. Personally I've had the Iphone 3gs and now have a HTC desire. The HTC Desire with it's Andriod and Sense software for me give a far superior user experience. The Iphone 4G to me has been underwhelming.

To counter ano's point - surely it is perfectly correct to state that the iPhone 4 is the most desirable phone - no other phone has had pre-orders and queues to buy it like the iPhone - if this doesn't demonstrate its desirability I don't know what does ... I have had an iPhone 4 since day 1 and am absolutely loving it. The quality of the hardware is breathtaking. Like a classic Dieter Rams Braun product it exudes class. The iOS flies and multi-tasking, folders etc are welcome updates. The best bits are the amazing screen - especially for reading text, it has the best cameraphone currently available (as confirmed by PC World blind testing), the excellent HD video capture, brilliant iMovie editing software. I have had no problems with the antennae issue, but it is obviously a real issue for lots of people - let's hope it can be fixed with a software update. btw, Pollyanna looks amazing :)

Wow, niiiice, very very nice, and I am talking about Pollyanna. Where did she come from, she is gorgeous! Great addition GS!

I'd love to be able to comment on your review of the new iPhone but sadly I can't watch the video on my current one (3gs) as it doesn't support your video format. Please one of you sort it out (Apple - we WANT flash. Five - you're loosing online viewers, I'm not the only one with an iPhone out here!)

Apple is great, but the gadget show seems to lean in favour of them more. I would like to see more different phones, and apps not just for the iphone

What happend to the gadget show?? It used to be all about the tech/gadge,but now it seems to be all about the challenge(with a bit of gadge that may have a little to do with the weeks waste of time) Perhaps it should be called "THE CHALLENGE SHOW" coz thats all the makers seem to be botherd about. Why not look back at the 1st and 2nd series,it was all about the tech and achallenge now and then. all in all the last series was CRAP and nodoubt the next will be too,so i wont be wasting my time on it..

I really enjoy The Gadget Show, both on tv and on the web and find it informative and entertaining, I like all the presenters, and most of the challenges are good, but it is becoming even more Apple centric !!!! We know that Apple make a good product, but the vast majority of people don't use them !!! Please don't stop reporting on Apple products (I know you all use them) but do try a more even handed approach, we humans are omnivores and cannot live on fruit alone, the result could be uncomfortable and somewhat messy !!!!

"Around me" app I really good.

P05 July 2010

Elegant, beautiful and effortlessly cool! The new Iphone well yes, but I'm talking about Polyanna Woodward! She's WAY too good just for web TV- hope to see her on the main show when it returns!

venky05 July 2010

I am a big fan of this program - now moved out of UK - looks like I cant access the site if I am outside UK. Looks weird - that too in a digitized world - cant we access the videos? please clarify. Thanks

Simeon06 July 2010

Considering this site why can I bot view the web tv on my iPhone?

Daniel 07 July 2010

Pollyanna seems great, really natural on screen! Looking forward to seeing her on the main gadget show as the new presenter! However, one problem- can you tell her to say "news" rather than "nooze!".

Ironic that I can watch an iphone4 review using my htc desire, but you can't watch it on an iphone4. Fail. Get an android phone with flash support and don't be like one of the 600,000 sheep.

i love the gashet show, but I LIKE SUZIE WAY BETTER

john oldman11 July 2010

You give this phone 5 Gs and say it's the best smartphone despite the reception problems and about a say a software update coming to fix the problem even though the update is for different issue altogether.I ordered one for me and my brother but I was able to cancel the order when I realised you gave false information and the Iphone cannot perform it's basic function which is getting reception and making calls. You guys need to get back to making unbiased and great reviews

Wayne13 July 2010

I have to agree with Richard, I too believe the Gadget show has lost its way. I end up recording it these days and most of it gets fast forwarded. Please dont reuin the show guys take it back to the way it used to be.

billy13 July 2010

is it worth getting the iphone 4?

oli23 July 2010

i cant watch it because of the SAAB advert

triggtrog02 August 2010

love it i just think i will wait till the falts are fixed

BigApple03 August 2010

Why have you got a presenter who doesn't over-act in a grating, retarded manner and behave generally like her shoe size? Jason, Suzy and Otis are what I like to call 'proper TGS presenters'. Pollyanna is just too.. stable and sensible, professional and adorably sane. Please get her off the screen immediately. If you don't know what to do with her, forget all the tech in the latest comp, I don't need any of it [already got my iPhone 4] just FedEx Pollyanna to me!

It should be noted that although the iPhone is the most popular smartphone, Android is far and away the most popular OS therefore more gadget show viewers are using Android phones and want to hear about ANDROID apps!
