PC gamers have been prisoners of office desks for many years, but during the past few years many of us have freed ourselves from our desks, and installed PCs in our family/living rooms, connecting them to newer TVs with 4K resolution and fast refresh rates. An early pioneer of this evolution is our next guest on The Chat - Martin Gossner, CEO/Founder of STEIGER DYNAMICS.

Unfortunately moving PC gaming to the living room creates a new dilemma, how do we keep our living rooms from turning into yet another office? One clever solution is the Nerdytec Couchmaster, and it's newest iteration of the Cycon priced at $180.

During The Chat this Saturday at 1pm Central, we will Loot Drop three (3) of them.

Yesterday we announced the release of Beacon for iOS version 1.2.0 that among other things adds notifications and the much requested contact synchronization (we will automate that process in a future release). Our Android version 1.0.2 also supports notifications.

Today, we've expanded notifications to include desktop browsers. Log in to www.beaconx.com from your laptop or desktop using your browser of choice, and you should see a notification popup indicating that Beacon wants to send you notifications. You want to Allow this and invite your Beacon contacts to do the same. It will enable some magical features to happen right on your desktop.

We are pleased to announce that we have released Beacon version 1.2.0 for iPhone and iPad.

HOW TO INSTALL

1) The newest version can be installed by using this link on an iPhone or iPad: apps.apple.com/us/app/beacon/id1424678…

2) If you already have the Beacon app on your device you can update it by launching the App Store on your device.

HIGHLIGHTED APP CHANGES

1) Beacon will now request permission to send you notifications. It's important that you permit this so you can get instant notifications if someone needs to reach you quickly on Beacon. Soon Beacon will notify you right before an accepted Scheduled Call so you’ll never miss a scheduled call ever again.

2) Beacon now allows you to synchronize your contacts using an iPhone or iPad. (Android devices now also have this feature).

3) Private rooms now work on iOS devices. More on this on a later date.

IMPORTANT NOTICE: Please remember that Apple recently introduced a bug that creates momentary audio stuttering on WebRTC video calls. Apple has acknowledged the bug and promised to release a fix. There's no known workaround.

The CHAT IV is scheduled for next Saturday, December 5th at 1:00PM Central.

This time The CHAT will have as special guest the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of STEIGER DYNAMICS - Martin Gossner.

Your hosts will be Alex Anderson, Teodor Atroshenko and Angel Munoz.

STEIGER DYNAMICS is hosting three Loot Drops of the Nerdytec Couchmaster Cycon – a new unreleased version - during the The CHAT.
