this episode of TechnoBuffalo is brought to you by Linda calm what's up everyone welcome back there pisode of rumor roundup this to show we take all the tech news from the week and there are a ton of rumors this week and we picked the four or five best and share them with you in one condensed video of this week the Nexus 5 was possibly revealed inadvertently or advertently in a Google video Apple developing some weird 17 watt power adapter for some crazy new device the Moto X might get a price drop to a cool Hyundai and the surface pro 2 might be on the horizon this rumor roundup i'm jon rettinger let's go ahead get started the nexus 5 possibly revealed in a new google video so the story goes like this google surprised everyone by calling the next version of android kitkat we all just assumed it was going to be key lime pie which is now a delicious but also not what the name ended up being no one had any idea was gonna be KitKat the Google put out a video showing them erecting a kitkat statue on their campus they showed all the employees all excited about this crazy and probably delicious KitKat stash including one guy holding a phone with the Nexus logo totally done in landscape if you look at the Nexus 4 it's in portrait and the back is a matte finish as opposed to Nexus 4 which has for that glossy glass look getting reflecting thing on it so the Internet's went up in a buzz ins like hmm to see how the Nexus 5 out on campus and that Google not notice that and yeah it's possible I would guess though that it's google totally messing with bloggers and to sort of follow the steps of what happens next after a leak gets unveiled they took the video down Google from playing this game for many many years I would guess they're probably messing with us I will say though device looks eerily similar to the sony z1 not saying sony's making the next nexus just it looks very very similar Apple's posli developing a weird 17 watt power adapter we don't usually cover power adapters but this one is kind of unique according to the folks at Apple Insider citing people familiar with the matter they're claiming that apple releasing brands a new product besides the iphone or ipad in the next 12 months although it's totally unclear with the device is going to be the case you're saying John 17 bought what is that equal so the current ipad comes a 12 watt adapter whereas a macbook air uses a 45 watt adapter so 17 seems like too much power for a watch and not enough power for a new computer so what bag is are going to be four perhaps maybe a giant iPad or a touchscreen laptop valid it's for a television but it would be cool of Apple totally surprised this with a one more thing or a product we had no idea about but it could come in the next 12 months so I wouldn't hold your breath for that September 10th event have you been looking at that moto x and being like man i wish i could make my own smartphone and bright red with yellow accents with the white front well you might be in luck and your patients might have paid off according to our good friend evleaks on his twitter account you should give him a follow @evleaks moto x price drops to 100 coming in q4 along with wooden back configurations for 50 bucks so your face is going to pay off but I put a lot of koreans this one and put it about as close to fact as we can before motor oil actually danced it themselves and last but not least something I'm all excited about and I have to do an updated review on the surface pro I've actually been using it as my dedicated computer at home for the past three weeks and honestly I really enjoyed it it's taking me about 10 days to get the learning curve of Windows 8 and I really appreciate it now I think it's only fair up at that review so I digress that will be coming soon but looks like my sweet baby surface / lucky getting a new older brother as its sequel like becoming very soon upgrade is supposed to be a hass well based core i5 with increased ram giving consumers the option to choose between four or eight gigs which eight gigs would be awesome supposedly have kind of the same design as a curtain surface pro a more refined kickstand win super site says the surface pro 2 will definitely be more than a modest upgrade with improved battery life and upgraded specs we don't know when it's going to come but if you do the math
