Can you download these webcasts to watch off line?

Unfortunately it looks like they can only be streamed, you can't save the whole presentation for later viewing.

I've asked via their comment page if the webcasts can be made available as a videocast. That way, you could get them using FeederReader directly to your Pocket PC. There may be issues with screen size or frame rate, but it would be a step in the right direction. "Microsoft" is already doing videocasts of MEDC 2005 ( http://www.medc2005.com/blogs.html ). This works great with FeederReader ;-)

That would be a great idea, theres a mass of useful content in these webcasts but it's not easy to get to - you have to go through a full registration process event for the archived ones.
A low bandwidth/reduced screensize version for viewing on devices would also be an interesting addition.

I hope they will allow us to download later. There are times when I just can't watch them in streaming mode.
