Veni, Vidi, Fari: We came, we saw, we chatted about the iPhone! Thanks to everyone who participated in last night's chatcast; we're hoping to make these a regular event, and your enthusiasm is both welcome and a required piece of the puzzle.The MP3 file can be downloaded here, and it should be showing up in our RSS Podcast feed & iTunes feed shortly. You can also listen to a streaming version of the chatcast at the Talkshoe website. Sorry about the varying levels; we'll try to do better for next time!
Thanks to Dave Caolo, Chris Ullrich and Erica Sadun for participating in the talkcast.

Is it a Chatcast, Talkcast or a Podcast? o_O What the hell is going on here? Who wrote this, Leo Laporte? O_o
Why wouldn't the Unofficial Apple Weblog Podcast be called a PODcast? We like iPods here, don't we?

#3 -- sorry for any lexicological confusion. Yes, it's a podcast. It's also a "chatcast" since we had multiple people calling in, and Talkshoe calls it a "talkcast." We'll try and sort this out.

I really don't have a problem with calling it something other than a podcast. I guess maybe Apple's backed off, but Apple did go after a few podcasts that used the term in their title. That's why Leo Laporte toyed with the idea of changing it to something else.

> "but Apple did go after a few podcasts that used the term in their title. That's why Leo Laporte toyed with the idea of changing it to something else."
That was a myth. There was a company that was selling podcast conversion software for non-iPod MP3 players in dept stores that was using a term like "iPodReady." That's who Apple Legal went after.
The news broke just before the Podcast and Portable Media Expo, where Laporte was giving a keynote, and he played it up for all it was worth, and suggested "NetCast" as the replacement.
It went down like a lead balloon.
Now "NetCast" is ready just branding for the TWiT line of podcasts.
