Gizmodo picked up this story. Though I won't risk posting a direct link here, let's just say that they might be able to help you in your searches...

Hah, crazy, now that I've done some googling I remember when this came out, way back when.

And look who's quoted down there at the bottom of page one...

Heh, I'm not surprised about Phil being quoted. I'd be more surprised if a story like this on wired DIDN'T quote PT. ;-)

Anyone know how to add a network location to the browse list? This would make a great portable home mp3 streamer interface over wifi.

That's really awesome.

I have to say though, that using mOcean on my Treo 650 accomplishes something nearly as close to an iPod phone. Especially with the included iTunes Hotsync conduit.

Err, I thought my phone, the ROKR, was the iPod phone, since it's a phone with iTunes? ;-P

But yeah, I never understood why they didn't make my phone with a click wheel, and make the dialer like an old rotary phone, it'd be so much more slick and iPod like.
