Engadget Podcast 052 - 11.15.2005
A surprising amount of news going on in the content provider market between NBC Universal partnering with DirecTV for digital programming distribution, CBS getting in bed with Comcast for the same, and Nick and Cartoon Network pairing off with Hasbro on the VuGo – everyone trying their hand, however poorly, at alternative methods of getting their content out there digitally. But Ed Colligan also took some time to weigh in on Palm's commitment to the PalmOS in future devices, some of which we're hoping might show up on Voce, the new Luxury MVNO just announced. Of course, there's also the grim news that the Revolution won't have HD support or play in the same price range as its competitors, but feel free to call in to comment (or shoot us a question) about this or anything else at 888-ENGADGET!
