Yes, that's the Odeo queue syncing - when you set up the properties you can
tell it that you will use iTunes and give a unique label for your Odeo 
podcasts - say "OdeoPodcasts.
Then use the Syncr to sync your Odeo queue (on the web site) with iTunes 
on the desktop and the podcasts show up in a playlist
called "OdeoPodcasts".

The iTunes subscription feature is slick but I found the selection on 
the Apple web site less interesting.

I am not an expert on this - I think you have to a feed that speaks 
Apple's unique XML variant.

Odeo Syncr will sync to your iPod via iTunes today.
If you keep the Syncr running as an automated task, it's one manual sync 
to the iPod.
