Podcasting

As with most MP3 players, you can download podcasts on your PC and transfer them to your Nokia E50 via Windows Media Player or Nokia PC Suite. You can also download podcasts directly to your Nokia E50 without using your PC at all.

Podcasts are regular digital audio or video broadcasts that can be downloaded and played on mobile devices and personal computers. News agencies and other sources offer podcasts on a wide range of topics. Often podcasts are regularly updated in a series of new episodes, so users often subscribe to their favorite shows.

The Nokia Podcasting application allows you to find, subscribe to and download podcasts over the air with your Nokia E50. After downloading a podcast, you can listen to or watch it when you want.

You can choose whether the Podcasting application uses Wireless LAN (requires WLAN network access) or GPRS/WCDMA packet data (requires a packet data plan) to download podcasts to your Nokia E50.
