Music on the Go Is Extended

From All About Palm: With the introduction of version 3.1, Normsoft's PocketTunes enables PalmOS devices to stream/play Windows Media 10 DRM (digital rights management) locked music. This is great news for those of you who use services such as Napster to Go and Yahoo's Music Unlimited to get music. PocketTunes 3.1 is compatable with just about every OS5 PalmOS device (not too sure about Sony PDAs, but Palm and palmOne devices are covered). Now just imagine being able to stream sermons over your palm and then play it on the car radio - mobile minitry while washing the car is now in service :)

FYI: Windows Mobile/Pocket PC users would need to be able to update to Windows Mobile 5 for Windows Media 10 for Windows Mobile to be able to stream/play this locked content. Dell has stated that they would offer an update to Windows Mobile 5, but at this time no one else has given any solid yes or no to that question.
