Try working out at a gym some time. They broadcast the TV stations using FM radio. I would love to be able to tune in over A2DP.
That being said, Verizon left FM readio on the Imagio. They would much rather have people use FM radio than data which costs them money. I honestly think they left FM radio off our devices to cut costs. Even if the hardware were actually there, they still would have had to do testing, FCC certification, and whatever else.
