Rob Greenlee is a timewaster.
His link only works for US mobile subscribers.

My 3 Xseries Nokia E65 has tried to download the Mobilcast 5.0 version 6 or 7 times.
It never installs properly.

I'm off to find a mobile podcasting service that works

Please try our new 5.0 Mobilcast HiFi client which sounds great as more of the newer phones now support AAC+ and our playback is at 24K. Get it at http://www.mobilcast.com.

You are all correct that our older 4.0 Mobilcast client had low audio quality as we had to use AMR at 12K and that created a hollow sound to the audio playback. Many of the mass market phones over the past year only supported AMR.

I also tried the BBC feeds and wasn't happy with the audio quality. Not sure if this is a BBC issue or Mobilecast issue. Spodtronic is my favourite podcasting client at the moment.

I have tried it and the audio quality (bitrate I presume) off the BBC podcasts they arey offer are terrible.

I use audiobay that grabs podcasts direct from the BBC, at their original bitrate. Yes its more data, but thats why I'm on X-Series!
