1SRC Podcast Six

[Jeff Kirvin]

In the sixth 1SRC Podcast, I muse about the inevitable convergence of PDAs and personal video players, or PVPs. I also cover the top ten PDA flops of all time, [details (http://www.1src.com/?m=show&id=770)]

Eerr, where do I download this..?

I know it's gonna be really obvious and I'm gonna look really daft, but I just can't see where?

BTW: Jeff - the podcasts are great - keep 'em coming, thanks!

I don't usually open up the comments until after I've listened to the 'cast, but there isn't a download link!
Thanks for posting it Jeff!

I will try Graffiti Anywhere now. Your point about screen wear drove it home.

I have to say that NetFront is a pretty darn good browser. It deserves at least a mention if not a favorable one.
It's versatility and integration with the rest of my TH55 is well, for lack of a better phrase, pretty darn good! Granted it is built in, but it all works!

Thw Zaurus SL-C3000 has a built-in hard drive. Only 4GB compared to the Archos 20GB.

2 and 3GB SD cards are out. The Z could have 6GB.

Ever tried Novarra Nweb? It's pretty good. I haven't tried Blazer 4.0, but I'm perfectly satisfied with Nweb.

[Jeff Kirvin]

Couldn't find a download of Nweb, and WebPro only officially works on PalmOne devices. I'm actually typing this in Blazer 2.0, which works well, aside from not supporting full screen.

And mark my words, either the Zodiac 3 or the Zodiac 4 will have an internal hard drive, and it will be at least 20GB, not a 4GB microdrive.

Similarly, I'm guessing NetFront is a Clie-specific browser. Ain't that a kick in the head.
Maybe I'll try Blazer on my TH55. It's been years since I tried it.

20GB is a ton of storage, needless to say. I'm interested to see what's coming from Tapwave.

Best podcast yet. Wanted to make sure and post just how much I enjoyed this one. Each podcast has seemed to get better and this one had really had some cool topics.

[Jeff Kirvin]

Thanks. By the way, if you anyone has topics they'd like me to cover, you can email me at jeff@writingonyourpalm.net or post to this forum.

It would be very convenient if there was a static link that references the latest Podcast, eg:
http://www.1src.com/..../lastestPodCast.mp3

This way, I can have a single bookmark in MMPlayer.

Lemme think about that one.

Netfront is Clie-specific, and its mainly because it requires alot of heap space. It is also version coded so that it will not work on other handhelds. Ill tell you now, though, that it is the best browser that you can run on a TH-55.

[jjesusfreak01]

I also liked the bit on convergence of handhelds and pvps. The problem is that there isnt a Palm or PPC(hate to say it) device that can do this. Sure, Linus is nice, but it needs to be a true pda. My 2c.
