PoGo! Radio YourWay is portable TiVo for radio. Record radio programming digitally, listen to it at your leisure, transfer it to and from your computer, record voice with the built-in microphone, and even play MP3s. And it's solid state (no hard drive), with 32MB RAM built-in and an SD/MMC slot. It sounds like it's not perfect, but it's a nifty start. If only there was something on the radio worth listening to...

NPR nuts might want to note that several popular NPR programs are available via subscription from Audible, which you can listen to on an iPod. I've got about 30 hours of Fresh Air on mine right now. Here's hoping that a substantial portion of the subscription fees benefit the programming.
