The new version adds: Podcasts support within the RSS feeds that can be set to be automatically/manually downloaded, multiple podcasts can be downloaded at the same time, unfinished downloads can be resumed at next SmartRss startup, text message notification when the podcasts are downloaded, and the ability to play downloaded podcasts with your favorite players. <br /><br /><img src="http://www.smartphonethoughts.com/images/Temporale-20050701-BeetzStreamRss.gif" alt="User submitted image" title="User submitted image"/> <br /><br />I really like how it shows a progress bar for your pending podcasts. There is nothing worse than waiting for something to download and having no idea how far along the process is. Nice job guys! :way to go:

I like that *Thoughts thing. I might have to start using that one myself! :lol:

Maybe you could start doing some podcasts yourself?

I don't know how many people really want to hear me speak. I don't even want to hear me speak! ;) Plus, what would I talk about? I listened to all of Mike Hall's MEDC podcasts, and they were good, I would have preferred text instead of the audio. Then I could easy scan over it and see if there was anything that I was specifically wanted to know more about without having to listen to all of them.
