No radio on the iPhone? With wireless it’s easy…

The thing I love about the iPhone is its shear diversity. Last Friday I was sitting in the lounge pondering over the busy week passed, at the same time I really wanted to listen to the Friday Floor Fillers, as you do…

Thinking back to what a mate once twittered, “I won’t get an iPhone it’s missing too many features, like a Radio” it got me thinking surely this is possible!

Seeing as I don’t have a radio anywhere near the lounge the docking station seemed to be staring right back at me. Straight away I tried the Radio One home page, but the listen live functionality requires a Flash player. The next step as usual was to trust in Google, which more or less lead me straight to this page:

http://www.bbcstreams.com

I downloaded the free FStream application from the App Store, entered the asx feed, plugged the iPhone into the docking station and there it was in seconds blasting away. Brilliant.
