This week's podcast started with the best of intentions, but quickly devolved into an epic 80 something-minute marathon of 3.75G modems, femtocells, and cranky Canadian chief executives. More importantly, we've now got a live iTunes feed going, which should make everyone's day just a little brighter.

It's a little delayed (same with iTunes) - should come within the next few hours!

I've tried to listen to it two times. I download & listen to the Engadget podcast (usually coupled w/ the GDGT one to round out my Friday bike rides) but for some reason I found this one unlistenable & I love the phone blog (& have proven my phone love by owning virtually every N series in the past 2 years - now on the 5800 & find it to be fairly successful).
I'll give it another go. W/o Josh (who was in the 1st one, I believe) there just doesn't seem to be the same level of focus & too prone to digression.

No complaining until you've listened to all six!
Just kidding - thanks for the feedback. We'll try to tighten it up.

Regarding the longest podcast ever: I have one episode in my iTunes that was 3 hours, 26 minutes - and I know of one show that went at least 4 hours. 1:20 is nothing.

Regarding AT&T's data cap. I've gone over the 5GB cap quite a few times and have never gotten charged extra or even gotten a nasty note from them. When I'm traveling for work I average between 7-10GB per month. Guess I've been lucky so far *knock on wood*
