Got myself a quite cuddly Sansa Fuze. 

Mini-review - Not that I have anything to compare it with: Been playing with it a lot .  Nice UI feel.  Pointless for video because the screen's tiny, it only handles 20fps, and there's no .  FM tuner is reasonable but has no station Identifier.  Nice that it has record capability.  Will have to see if I can do chase viewing.  Much much cheaper than a Nano and according to Amazon more reliable than a Zen. 

So I now appear to have podcast capability.  Could be worthwhile for travel to and from work.  Does anyone have any suggestions for things to listen to?

For writing there's the Parsec Award-winning I Should Be Writing http://www.ishouldbewriting/, For geeky essays and fun there's Geek Fu Action Grip http://www.geekfuactiongrip.com/, for a story that over 15,000 loved (omylouse and l_j_b are among them) go to http://playingforkeepsnovel.com/ and for a tale of what happens when a zombie employment agency merges with a local web company (and why does a web design company need a mad scientist? Well, why not?) http://zombinc.net/
All this can be found at the umbrella site http://www.murverse.com/

There's also The Eclectic Review http://eclectic.libsyn.com/
The show is described thusly
"Glory is a scientist. Stuart is a science fiction writer. Each week we take 30 minutes to discuss science, art, books, movies, tv, writing, and whatever else falls in our laps. It's called eclectic after all!"

There's also the two big names in podcast noveling of
J.C. Hutchins' 7th Son which starts with "The President of the United States is dead. He was murdered in the morning sunlight by a four-year-old boy..." and cranks up from there http://jchutchins.net/ and
Scott Sigler's site which features all his horror novels http://www.scottsigler.com/
