Nokia Beta Labs introduced Internet Radio client for Series 40 phones. Just like its smart phone counterpart, this application brings access to tens of thousands of radio stations all over the world, and it extends the Nokia Internet Radio offering to many more Nokia users, especially those in emerging markets.
Nokia Internet Radio is a network service. Before you can connect to the Nokia Internet Radio service to listen to radio stations, you must have a wireless LAN or packet data access point defined in your device. WLAN is the recommended connection method for smooth listening. Using packet data access points may involve transmission of large amounts of data through your service provider’s network.
