iPhone and iPod Touch users now have direct access to Columbia on iTunes U on their mobile devices, making Columbia podcasts readily available for download and play without the need of a desktop computer. With the release of the iPhone 3.0 software, iPhone and iPod Touch users can navigate to iTunes U via the iTunes application. The new Columbia on iTunes U mobile portal, developed by CCNMTL, enables users to link directly to Columbia’s podcast library by visiting http://itunes.columbia.edu in their mobile Safari browser. The mobile portal, shown to the right, offers the same access modes for public and Columbia (UNI-authenticated) users and provides the same robust library of audio and video podcasts to browse, download, or play immediately.
