As an Englishman, I prefer the term "quaint". What ho.
Also, have you guys considered recording the conversation on both ends and then splicing the videos together to form one without any stutter?

I like it. It's like one of those commercials trying to show you how much better the new Super HD, Bluray TV is than crappy old analogue. I can just imagine this running on display in bestbuy.

Hi Derek,

unfortunately drPodder won`t download the file. It "downloads" within a second and it is not playable :(

Thanks for keeping the tradition of Palmcast alive!!

Marcel

Same with podFrenzy! Please fix.

I got the podfrenzy download problem as well. Podcast will stream but stalls part way thru. The stall maybe my 3g connection. I would still prefer to download the podcast while I'm on wifi. Ok, I get it. Yeah... they're 3 people still using drpodder/podfrenzy. because webOS is awesome!

Derek said he doesn't know whether there are any linux printers, so here it is :
There are many linux printers. As far as i know all network printers run either linux or something called vxworks.

There is already a solution to the problem of apps on Apple and Google's platform. What makes apps useful? They perform a special utility. When you remove the ecosystem and keep the utility you build on to the OSes core. The destruction of the app store is to remove applications ecosystem but keeping their utility.
