This is The Briefing, a ten-minute-or-less podcast of tech news, for the week ending November 17, 2012. In this edition: HTC and Apple settle while Samsung declares it is not backing down; Steven Sinofsky, Microsoft’s Scott Forstall, leaves; and Twitter angers developers again with two apps hitting the user cap.
For those who missed out what The Briefing is, here’s a blog post explaining the show. Feel free to offer any suggestions, improvements and constructive criticism for our new show.
