About

The Simulcast began in June 2009. The panel members (Michael Manna from T4Show, Steve Trotto from Mobile Tech Moment, and Bill Stebbins from Mobility Today) decided to start our own podcast during a hiatus for Mobility Today. After 13 successful episodes of The Simulcast, Mobility Today returned with a new cast and our staff elected to continue this show. In February of 2010, Dave Valle joined us for a full-time spot and most recently Geoff Farinha has come on board.

We sincerely appreciate all of the support and look forward to continuing our weekly shows every Wednesday evening at 8:30pm EST.

Here is the current panel of tech enthusiast that make up The Simulcast.

    Steve, just listened to your podcast and wanted to thank you for the great feedback on our customer service department and the ZAGGsparq issue.

    You guys mentioned the LEATHERskins and I’d love to send you out some LEATHERskin product for your phones. We only have 5 devices covered by the LEATHERskin so if you shoot me an email with the names of the devices for your crew and the color and style you would like I’ll get some product sent out.

    You can reach me at john@zagg.com.

    Look forward to hearing from you.

    Thanks again,

    John Hesch
