symphonix is on a distinguished road
I think it will pick up a variety of podcasts as time passes, but for now its likely to be pretty sparse. I work for IBM, and I know the developers and tech types there use Podcasts A LOT - lectures, announcements, blogs ... many are available as podcasts which is ideal for catching up on while driving to work, etc. I suspect Apple internally has a culture that probably use Podcasts, Keynote and QuickTime streaming like crazy. Even news vendors like CNN are picking up on the possibilities for Podcasts. We'll have to wait and see what this means to the general public in a couple of years though.

Still, I like the idea that in a couple of years time, I'll be driving to work and have the day's programs - which I chose for myself - playing on the car stereo.
