We get a late-night delivery from a mysterious man in an unmarked minivan – and he comes bearing an wrist watch right outta the future. We get our Apple iPad Pro ordered up, and we find a friendly Canadian to tell us what to expect. And we finally spend a few days with the BlackBerry Priv – and it turns out we don't know how to feel about it any more than the internet does. All of the above –plus your listener mail– awaits below on episode 174 of the Pocketnow Weekly! So charge up your Pencil and clear off an acre of desk space, because we're about to get all Pro on you. Again.
