Dave Mansueto of Wizzard Media (and Libsyn) did an informal video demo of their new iPhone application, Wizzard Media Receiver. I pulled out my iPhone and followed along with Dave. You can bet that I’m going to sign up for an account and use this service while on the road in the car to satisfy those “OMG everything on my iPod sucks” moments we all have.
Podcasts are streamed over the network to your phone. If you’re on EDGE, this may be a bit slow, but mp3s do stream pretty reliably on the slow AT&T;data network. I have not yet tried out the Wizzard Media Receiver on EDGE, but will while traveling in the car over the US Thanksgiving holiday.
The service is still “beta,” so you may find some rough patches along the way. Other than some design and user interface issues, the web application looks pretty solid and well on its way.
To see the app on your iPhone, go to http://iphone.wizzard.tv.
