Related to the post below, I have stopped using Podcaster. Gone US$4.99. The reason is because with the later version of Podcaster, the UI changes makes it difficult to use and not user friendly compared to iPod app. Furthermore iPod allows downloading over the air now. So problem with earlier version of iPod resolved. Upon using, I noticed that by using Podcaster, downloading podcast directly to iPhone requires iPhone to keep running and it drains the battery juice because of WIFI. It just don't make sense now. It is better to download to iTunes on desktop and sync to iPhone. Reason is because majority video podcast size is about 100MB or more. It is painful to download directly to iPhone. Also, iPod app has a good background operation as it stops when the is incoming phone calls and resume after the call. You can still use Safari which listening to music without the need for Backgrounder app. You can do much more with iPod app in your phone.
Verdict on Podcaster: Don't buy.
Why pay US$4.99 when you get the better functions for free. Use iPod built-in to iPhone and it is free.
