@thp, thanks for that recommendation. panucci is definitely nice, and on my roadtrip this week of 1200 miles roundtrip, it was a lifesaver. But, I can't figure out how you have panucci running as an applet on the desktop. Maybe thats the radio (which I never use)? Here is that image I was talking about: http://khan.thpinfo.com/~thp/images/...d-progress.png Sorry for the completely remedial, non-gpodder question, but hopefully you can clue me in to this pretty neat feature I am clueless about.
