The need for the beta tag starts slipping away in our sixth release as we've been able to clean up much of the production and received all the music for the show. We talked about Podcatching (downloading and listening to podcasts) this time with several software options and method for listening to those podcasts in the field. We referred to an article on Wikipedia as a good reference for software options which can be kept up-to-date. On the desktop we mentioned iTunes, Juice, and Zune. One multi-platform option to listen to podcasts is Stitcher. Android users might try BeyondPod, DoggCatcher, or . On iOS, podcatching options include Instacast, Podcaster, and Podcatcher. Bluetooth A2DP headsets were discussed, includings the BlueAnt T1, BlueAnt Q2, and Plantronics Voyager PRO HD mono headsets. Stereo headsets mentioned were the Plantronics BackBeat 903+, Motorola S10-HD, Motorokr S305, and Sennheiser MM 100. We also mentioned the iHome iDM12 and Jawbone Jambox, plus the Ford Sync and Toyota BLU Logic systems for cars. |
