Welcome to the first podcast, or ThoughtCast for Pocket PC Thoughts. This was a trial run and let me warn you, the quality is horrible. This was made using an iMATE PDA2K Pocket PC Phone Edition, the ultra-cheap handsfree set that came with it, VITO Sound Explorer (using the trial version right now) and a 1998 Audi A4 V6 Quattro. Unfortunately, the star of the show is the Audi because that cheap piece of junk headset didn't filter out diddly, and at 70mph the combination of the fat tires and wind noise was more than the mic could handle. However, we are calling this the beta so we are allowed to not be perfect, right? :wink: That said, I have a new headset and it sounds roughly 495.91% better, so the first release version ThoughtCast won't be such an assualt on your senses. :D You'll see that this is a very informal presentation and is not scripted at all. Redoing this to get better quality would have destroyed it.
Show notes:
• General comments on the Windows Mobile Smartphone
• eReader Promotional Site
• Microsoft Global Contact Access
• Microsoft Outlook Mobile Manager 2.0
This is a bit manual. For now, the RSS link with enclosures for your podcasting software is here. It'll be more formalized later and that link may change. It has a link for the direct download but you are better off setting up your podcasting software to automatically download enclosures.
Let me know what you think about the format. We already know what you think about the quality. :lol:
