I remember with sadness the day the guys behind iPodderX got their cease and desist letter from Apple in December 2005 and withdrew from the podcast aggregator software scene. It wasn’t long however before we got wind of their new name, Transistr, chosen by a public naming contest. The new Transistr was due to be release by March of 2006, which slipped and then word had it, that a release by the end of 2006 was going to be happening. This cam and went, but tantalizingly, the website still showed their new graphics and “coming soon” message. Alas this has now been replace by a standard TextDrive coming soon page, so things are not boding so well for Transistr.

I did do a whois on the transistr.com domain and it is still registered to Ray Slakinski, one of the people behind iPodderX, so maybe all is not lost. Time will tell.
