No problems here as I streamed a 50mb podcast today..WOOT

10mb Really? I hadn't even tried it yet. I was looking forward to this new feature greatly. I have a DVR at home with podcast support. it does a nice job of converting the video into h.264 format and then creating a feed. I was excited to be able to sync my TV shows to my iphone over my wifi. Of course most shows are 400mb+

10mb Podcast limits? What a joke. What is Apple's problem? As Justia eluded to, people on every other platform are able to use applications to download whatever size podcast they prefer, as long as they have the physical storage to accomodate it.

Why not Wifi Syncing!?!

Posted by interstink, Friday, Nov. 21st, 2008

The next Mobile Tech Addicts podcast will be done in four 10 meg parts so you can download over 3G, no only joking, but is this what will happen now, will we see iPhone versions of podcasts cut up into 10meg portions so people can get more downloads, ridiculous decision and worthless, may as well have been wifi only

I like the update and new features. However, I wish that podcasts downloads were allowed over 3G for larger files. 10MB is to small to include many podcasts. In the past, I have downloaded podcasts of 30-40MB on Windows Mobile phones using programs like Newsbreak or Kinoma.

Ok my findings so far are, lower signal strength and erractic, dropped data connections and no reconnect, some update this

They said they addressed the most popular concerns/requests :)

So many things missing, this is disappointing.

I think Apple need to wake up, devices like Storm will surely make a big dent in the sales of iPhone.

No turn by turn navigation, no copy and paste, no tethering, support for typing in landscape mode for e-mail/sms, no MMS....
