“Now you can turn a Pocket PC into a wireless-enabled “Video iPod” with excellent podcast support,” notes Wes Henderson at the Pocket Podcasting blog. “Despite owning an iPod, I rarely use it anymore. I originally had doubts when I bought my Pocket PC. Now that I think of it as a WiFi iPod that can do Skype, web, games, etc., it’s quickly turned out to be a worthwhile purchase.”
