This is all great. It will open up videoblogging to a lot more consumers.
Am I sounding like a broken record? Sorry! You can do this today with a Pocket PC and FeederReader. The Dell Axim x50v and x51v have direct video out (with appropriate cable). You can download DIRECT to the Axim with FeederReader and play videoblogs (or anything else) over the video cable. I know these are new rumors, but when it enables things we can already get today, the *new* capabilites it brings seem less than exciting. The biggest thing this does is open up videoblogs to all of Apple's current and potential iPod customers, which is a HUGE number. Imagine the scenario: Videoblog --> RSS 2.0 with Media Enclosures --> Dell Axim with FeederReader (WiFi or Cell phone) --> external display No need for iTunes or a desktop or syncing files.
