Pros, Cons & Final Judgment

LoKast is a cool concept that, like any social network, will only realize its potential with greater numbers of users. In the 1.0 version, users can connect using only wifi or bluetooth, which may inhibit the growth of the service - though they've since added an "optimized networking" feature that purportedly allows for sharing over 3G. However, LoKast is very fast and free - so check out the video to see if it's worth the download!
