Engadget Mobile Podcast 001 - 12.17.2008

Break out the bubbly! After years of hemming and hawing, we've finally bitten the proverbial bullet and pulled the trigger on the Engadget Mobile Podcast, where you'll hear the ramblings of two neurotic, dangerously-obsessed phone guys blow off some steam week after week. Naturally, we'll be featuring the occasional special guest and contest, so be sure to keep tuning in -- and remember to shoot us your questions and comments!

For this inaugural episode, we spend a hot minute chatting up the Palm Nova and the Treo Pro, Nokia's freshly-launched N79 and N85 in the US, Kogan's ongoing efforts to get a homegrown Android set out of the door, the Nuvifone (now with an FCC seal of approval under its belt), and a couple of Storm launches up north.

Note: We don't have the iTunes, RSS, and Zune feeds sorted quite yet -- but keep an eye on this space, because we hope to have them fixed in a jiffy. Cheers!
