I like the network (often listen to it via Screamer on the PC) but am disappointed by the performance on the ppc... The app works correctly, handing off control to Media Player, but the stream stops within seconds of playing unless you have several bars... I assume you must have a VERY good signal for this to play well... 1x won't work, must have a strong EVDO or Wi-Fi for these streams...

What kind of bit rate are we talking here?

I'm trying to get it to work with the internet connection created durring active sync, but it seems to not want to work.

If I run the program once a connection is established, it won't open. When I run the program before establishing the connection, active sync won't give my phone internet.

weird...

Did you see my post here:

You have a lot more channels to choose from and I personally think they play a better selection of music. I'm fairly certain 977 uses 128k. The 1.fm files I posted also use 128k, but I'll be posting a 32k version later this afternoon.
