I've tested a fair share of Mobiblu MP3 players and was impressed by the company's design chops and, to varying degrees, the performance of their devices. They've been honing the formula in each go-round, and it looks like the latest result could really be something to be reckoned with.

The MobiBlu B153 (known as the DAH-1900 in Korea) has two main selling points: an outstanding 153-hour battery life and the fact that it is "podcastready," meaning that you can connect it to any computer in order to pull down new episodes of the podcasts you're subscribed to – no software required. In its highest (flash memory) capacity, it'll only hold 2GB of music, but that's plenty for people who only want to carry around their most recently added music and most recently updated podcasts.

Out of all of the MP3 player manufacturers, Apple currently offers the most tightly-integrated support for podcasting, but that could change soon, if "podcastready" stickers start showing up on a wide selection of competing players.
