Gadget Podcasts

I'd just like to take this chance to talk about a few gadget podcasts I listen to on the way to work. I've got a long one hour drive to work and back five days a week so I take this opportunity to listen to some podcasts.

First off I'd like to mention the iOS app iCatcher. It cost £1.49 on the app store. If you subscribe to podcasts via this app it will auto download each episode when it becomes available. You can set it so it only auto downloads when connected to wifi or if you're one of the lucky ones to have an unlimited data tariff then you may as well set it to auto download on 3G. You can also select a number of back episodes to download too if you want to catch up on anything you've missed out on or get a good listen to a few episodes before commuting to subscribing. A pay for app that's well worth the fee.

Gadget Gurus - This is the only US based podcast I listen too. It involves a lot of heated and amusing debates and some rather abrupt opinions. Well worth a listen even if you're outside the US.

T3 , Wired, CNet - All light hearted but informative views on the latest gadgets. Each has their own merits and I listen to them all.

Which Gadget - This is the gadget podcast by the popular Which consumer magazines. It offers some very useful legal and technical information. They also offer some god recommendations.

Click - BBCs podcast from their Click radio show. Tends to cover a wider scope of the gadget world than the other podcasts. A more "mature" podcast so to speak but not overly serious.
