Sigh! You DON'T need an iPod to listen to a podcast.

and of course I-pod is just Apple's version of the mp3 player but I think it's becoming a generic name...just like "I'm
going to the frigidaire" (...by GE), or "I'll xerox this"
(on a Ricoh copier).** People might just refer to their SanDisc,
Sony, RCA (Lyra), or other brand as an Ipod.

**--years ago, the folks at Muzak were upset that people
were referring to "elevator music" in general as Muzak, even
if it was by another company. They took out an ad in
trade publications: Muzak--Don't Say It If You Don't Mean It.
As in, just because you say it's "muzak" doesn't mean it's
by them...
