ah thanks! I don't mind the slowness since I usually update it in the morning when getting ready or at night before bed. It'll bee great since I'll be using the metro to go to school in Fall (sniff 60000) debt for two years.

A short update:
- No more timeouts since the one in my last post. It happily downloaded 8 at once this morning. I'm more and more convinced it's my issue. Will let you know if it comes back and I have anything useful to add.
- Regarding the starvation reboots, I must unfortunately report that my tablet did it today during a *single feed update*. I was playing something in Pannucci at the time but that's nothing I haven't done before without such problems (in fact, sometimes I think having something else working the CPU can help, and that seems like it might make some sense if it's a starvation issue). The audio stuttered a few times before the eventual reboot. I still think it's very likely that your plan to go serial will stop this from happening most of the time but it looks like in some extreme scenarios it can even happen with one.
Cheers,
Tom.

I'm trying out gPodder right now and so far I got mixed thoughts about it.
On the Pro-side:
- Nice feature sets such as choosing what media player, etc.
- Rather quick download of new episode.
On the Con-side:
- It takes a LONG time to add a new podcast / get the episode list ... a LONG TIME.....
- It seems to be a sluggish application in general often becoming kinda unresponsive - in particular the Preference window when opening it from the status bar icon.
- I tried for 20-30 mins to find a way to set the application to keep X number of episodes but could not find a way to do it
If only penguintv would even run for me I could try that one out....

Hi Thomas! I just saw gpodder 0.17.0-1 come in tonight! GREAT new update!! I'm especially glad you made the fingerscrolling an OPTION now. I was able to toggle it around and figure out that--oddly, I preferred non-fingerscrolling. It was just faster. **shrug** 
And the passwords in my podcasts now WORK!! HUZZAH!!!
OK.. only two problems I found:
1) I can't select a bunch of episodes like I used to be able to before fingerscrolling.
MOST IMPORTANTLY...
2) I can't play episodes! I tap an episode and select play and nothing happens--it doesn't even mark it as played. Looks to me like maybe a simple error slipped through:

Spoke too soon. The password thing is STILL a problem, oddly. I'll post the bug in the bugtracker later tonight when I get home.

Please report back if this works for you as expected, and I'll promote the package to Extras after that.

For the other bug (password-protected feeds?) please also don't forget to file a bug report.

gPodder 0.17.0-2 has just been promoted from Extras-Devel to Extras. The update should appear today in your Application Manager (if you have not upgraded to 0.17.0-2 by using Extras-Devel already).
Some details about the release: gPodder 0.17.0 for Maemo 4 and Fremantle progress

It seems I can no longer play an episode without downloading it. There was an option to turn this on in the previous version, but I couldn't find the option in the latest version.
