Quick follow-up. I just had occasion to "test" my Griffin Technology Elan Form Graphite case. A little too much spring in my step resulted in my iPhone 4S crashing to the cement floor of my office, face down. The face of the case broke away, my heart lept into my throat, but thankfully, not a scratch on the phone.The case snapped back together and I'm back in business. Best $7 I've spent.

Hey Frank. We chatted offline about this. Can you post your solution here?

A follow-up to my question. I bought two inexpensive cases for my wife and I. The first is a Griffin Technology Elan Form Graphite ($7.16 on Amazon). It is a two-piece case that snaps and holds together well. The front and back bezel is raised slightly which allows me to place my phone face-down (my preference so that if something drops on the phone it is at least protected by the back case). I do find the raised bezel can make it challenging to highlight text at the edges of the screen. The case looks nice and seems to offer decent protection (though I've not felt the need to quantify that). The second case is a Griffin iPhone 4 CDMA & GSM Reveal Case ($14 @ Amazon). It has a soft(er) rubber band around the edges of the phone and a clear plastic back. Front and back bezel is raised. It poses less of a problem with edge-of-screen text selection because the bezel flexes so you can get your finger right to the edge of the screen. The back plastic mars easily. My wife like this case better than the other as it isn't as slippery overall. I find both to be fairly priced and have held up well in the ~2 months we've had them. Both are slim enough that they fit our various charging docks without requiring case removal. This post was edited by Chris Brewer at December 26, 2011 7:16:49 AM PST

Do you have Podcast Producer set up on a server somewhere? If not, Podcast Capture/Publisher won't do you much good. If you do, that sounds like a good solution as it will automate the publishing portion of your task. If not, you might consider using the included QuickTime Player to do the capture, and then a third-party service to ingest and host the videos.

HI Steven. Are you concerned with hosting the converted files, converting the files themselves, or both?
