Hi all. I am not a famous person. I have never voted for an idol. I’ve
only been an AT&T customer for 3 weeks so I’ve only managed to send
less than 100 txt messages - not a heavy texter. Even after all that,
I still got the American idol spam txt yesterday. You guys made me
feel like I’m a “somebody”. Thanks!

Hi BOL Crew, Long time first time, At&T said they were sending these texts to “heavy texters” and people who had voted for American Idol in the past. I fit in to both categories. I have voted twice from my phone and my sister, my mother, and myself send 8000, 5000, & 4000 texts a month respectivly. I’m a little hurt i didn’t get a message. :’( Love the show.

As host of the Buzz Report video series, Molly provides a fresh and funny perspective on the latest consumer electronic products to hit the market, as well as commentary on the stories and development that she thinks are truly buzz-worthy. She is also co-host of Buzz Out Loud, CNET's "podcast of indeterminate length," which entertains listeners with a funny and skeptical take on the day's technology news. Her other podcast, Gadgettes, is proof that girls can be geeks too.
Tom Merritt appears on
CNET TV, specializing in help and how-to and the ever popular Top 5
lists. He also co-hosts CNET's The Real Deal podcast. 
Jason Howell can
often be found producing Buzz Out Loud from the audio studios at CNET,
updating XML feeds from the comfort of his cubicle, and saying "uh-oh"
from time to time. 
Or Is an attractive female can't have a brain? I don't find that on "Loaded" doesn't seem to lower my IQ. Nor have I found her participation on BOL to be distracting. She has been in the tech field for quite some time and I think it would be appropriate to give her a chance to settle in for a while before you trash her.
:-(
You replace Molly with Natalie?!
Come on... Molly is the heart of this show and no one will be able to replace it.
You're simply destroying the best tech show with this switch...
Too sad - just another one bust to dust :(
You rant about paying an extra $10 for something in the store. That store put people to work, pays utility bills, pays property taxes, SS Taxes etc. That online store doesn't have most of that overhead. It should be a lot cheaper! Plus you talk about not paying sales tax online. You are suppose to pay the sales tax when you file your taxes, if you're not your in violation of the Tax Code. You should all be ashamed of yourselves for ranting about all the lost jobs in one breath and then buying online to save a few bucks in the next!
/rant
I am the Grand-daughter of a small business owner struggling to keep it open because more and more people think like you guys do!
I do like Cooly, anyone that has a sense of humor which Natalie doesn't at all. I predict she'll be replace soon with someone else just as PC, but with a sense a humor.
Whatever,
Traaxx

- I only started listening to this show a year ago but I just loved listening to the hosts wry take on technology. There's something missing with the new show lineup - Molly! Please bring her back.
