>>>A "Lectern" ....
Well, if one wants to be extremely picky about it, yes, lectern - but the 3rd definition listed under "podium" - http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=podium - is none other than "lectern".
That's true, but it is debasement of the language. The POD part means foot, as in PODiatrist. I guess iPod means iFOOT.........
