  • I’ve been thinking about this.

    Every day I go to work by train and every day I see a couple of cops just waiting on the train station with a thick tablet-like device that has two huge-ass antennas. I’m pretty sure they’re just registering every Bluetooth and WiFi signal that passes through and I’m always wearing Bluetooth headphones when I go by them.

    My phone doesn’t have a headphone jack but I usually carry a miyoo mini, which does, so I initially thought about getting my music collection in there and playing music through that, but thinking it through I actually almost exclusively listen to podcasts on my commute.

    So the next alternative I thought was getting an android handheld, I’ve had one before and they are pretty great! You can put any android app in there and they usually have headphone jack and hdmi out. So it can run Antennapod and update podcasts when it has wifi. You can connect it to a screen and use the desktop mode and even this. I think its worth looking into.
