Shouldn’t that be Podeo?
Funnily enough, it’s not really the music features that have tickled my fancy when it comes to MP3 players. As I’ve mentioned before, I don’t like listening to music while I’m en route. It’s the idea of podcasting that’s made me half-keen on spending my next Google ads cheque on a player. I’m sure I wouldn’t even persevere. I’d probably listen twice and then give up. Just like I tell myself to listen to the radio more, and never do. But still. Wanna try. It’s that pathetic need to be an early adopter.
So I’m kinda, sorta interested in Evan Williams’s new enterprise: Odeo: Listen, Sync, Create.
“Odeo aims to enable this new distribution channel and medium by creating the best one-source solution for finding, subscribing to, and publishing audio content.”
So it’s like a podcast portal? Whatever, I’m so in. I signed up for an invite. Thereby committing myself to acquiring the dread machine. I’m sad.
Update: Has anyone every *tried* to buy one of these things? There are a handful of Mac shops in Amsterdam. None of them have *anything* in store. Everything has to be ordered and they can’t say how long it’ll take. Brilliant.
I’m intrigued by this as well, but wonder how it will differ from ipodder.org
As for the device – Can’t you get one delivered?

I reckon they’ll have some instant ‘post to your blog’ service.
I suppose I could (or will have to) order one but I’d like to hold it before I buy it. And I don’t get much satisfaction out of buying stuff online.
