Firstly, does ephpod actually parse the news feeds properly? Or does it 
just make some sort of guess at it? So far im thinking it isn't too 
bright on the parsing, this is annoying for a variety of reasons. Does 
ephpod accept plain CSV(?) \n and \t deliminated data aswell?

Secondly, can we get international weather data? I've had to write my 
own screen scraper to get data from wunderground.com so i can get UK 
weather data on my iPod, not the most elegant of solutions.

Why does ephpod append [1] to the names of my news feeds when i transfer 
them to my iPod?

Why can't i use the notes feature on my iPod instead of contacts? I 
assume this is for pre-3G compliance, i'd rather like to see notes support.

EphPods metadata (ID3) support is far from perfect. It doesn't fall back 
to ID3v1 if Read data from ID3v2 is checked for one. APE2 tagging would 
be nice, but a pipe-dream all the same.

Generally EphPod rocks however, but has some niggiling problems, little 
problems that I could fix myself and more if the source code was at 
least publically availible :P
