MobileViews Podcast 531: Comica wireless mic; Copilot doesn't know weather/news; iPadOS 18.0.1 text messages

In this podcast I misspoke and introduced it as podcast 532. It is really podcast 531... Jon Westfall and I discuss:

• Trying out/reviewing the Comica EJoy Uni Pro Wireless & USB microphone
• Microsoft Copilot can now carry out persistent discussions. However, it does not have information about weather or news. Google Gemini, on the other hand, can answer questions related to weather and news.
• CNN.com trying a subscription plan again.
• iOS/iPadOS 18.1 with more Apple Intelligence features said to be set for release on October 28.
• After iPadOS 18.0.1., I can send/receive SMS/RCS text messages to Android phone users
• iPhone 15 & 16 Action Button super shortcuts in reddit.com/r/shortcuts
