And on this topic, I might nudge for a fixed-point encoder as this would be 
far more advantages to Ogg-Vorbis (well, as a pair).

Could really storm the handhelds market with a free format like this, encode 
your ogg-vorbis directly and what-not.

Ok, I realize this sounds like a car-salesman speil, but as soon as there is 
a usable fixed-point ogvorbis encoder/decoder, I would like to wrap it into 
an app for the PDA market, specifcally for recording.  mp3 isn't really an 
option for all the obvious reasons and there isn't anything else.  Lets storm 
the pda user base huh?  Then when its firmly there, the main stream might see 
how much more sense it makes then mp3.

Thanks for your time, You are all great, keep up the good work....

Ian.
