This Week On The TC Gadgets Podcast: Pebble, Stratos, And New Apple iMacs

One important note about this podcast: Matt can’t seem to get his microphones to work. Ever. So if you’re wondering why we all sound like professional radio hosts (two of us are, actually) and Matt sounds like hot garbage, it’s because he is incompetent with microphones.
Moving on!
Pebble is against the ropes, according to a new story from John Biggs, with the Apple Watch taking smart watch center stage since its launch. Meanwhile, Matt is enjoying his time with the Stratos smart credit card, and we’re all excited about the new 27-inch Retina iMacs.
Except Matt, who thinks his home-brew computer is better for some inexplicable reason.
Luckily, we all still love each other, which is proven in the fact that John has to cut us off every single week (because we just want to keep on chatting).
We discuss all this and more on this week’s episode of the TC Gadgets Podcast featuring Matt Burns, Jordan Crook, Darrell Etherington, and John Biggs.
We invite you to enjoy our weekly podcasts every Friday at 3 p.m. Eastern and noon Pacific. And feel free to check out the TechCrunch Gadgets Flipboard magazine right here.

14 year old girl sentenced to 40 years for drowning baby A 14-year-old Dallas girl who drowned a 2 month old baby out of jealousy was sentenced by a juvenile court judge on Friday to 40 years in custody, the maximum punishment available, after admitting to drowning the infant in January, court officials said. The teenager will begin serving her sentence in state custody of the Texas Juvenile Justice Department. A judge will determine whether she is eligible for parole before her 19th birthday or should be transferred to an adult prison. In a juvenile lockup, the girl will have more options than if she had been tried as adult. She will go to school and get counseling. The baby belonged to a family friend who was in jail. Child Protective Services had placed the infant in the home of the teenage girl's mother at the request of the baby's mother, according to police. Investigators said the girl confessed to submerging 2-month-old Justice Hull in a bo...

Google Introduces Two New Sub-$250 Chromebooks In India Mobile is the big tech focus for India — with initiatives like Facebook’s Internet.org and Google’s Android One , to name but two — but that isn’t stopping Google from introducing new budget Chromebook laptops in the South Asian country. The Mountain View-based firm announced two sub-$250 Chromebooks, laptops powered by its web-based Chrome OS platform, from domestic manufacturers Nexian and Xolo. The Nexian Chromebook retails for 13,499 INR ($212) from Amazon — it’s currently on sale for 12,999 INR — while Xolo’s device is available from Snapdeal for 13,999 INR, around $220.

LaunchKit Now Helps Developers Keep Track Of Their App Store Sales

LaunchKit Now Helps Developers Keep Track Of Their App Store Sales LaunchKit , which aims to give developers a tool set that makes  launching new apps easier , announced  its newest service this week. The free LaunchKit App Store Sales Reporter helps developers track the sales they generate from Apple’s App Store (just like its name implies). Instead of building a complex dashboard that developers can then obsess about every day, the team decided to use Slack and/or a daily email to keep users up to date on their sales. “The LaunchKit team built Sales Reporter because we wanted a simple way to get iTunes Connect sales data into the place our team communicated all the time: Slack,” LaunchKit founder Brenden Mulligan tells me “After a simple setup, the free tool starts posting sales data into Slack daily.” The service mostly focuses on the ba...
