"Streaming audio/video is a void for BlackBerry device. The typical strength for BlackBerry is its push email.

PocketStreamer runs on RIM's popular pearl, Curve and 88 series devices.

Boo.. It costs $21.95

[tavella81]

And no trial? I'll pass until someone posts some reviews. I'd be nice if they'd mention if you can add your own stations and other options. It looks to me that they are picking and choosing different Shoutcast stations to broadcast.

A trial would be really nice and definately would increase their sales if people could actually see if it was worth the $22.00. IMHO I really dont understand why some companies do not offer trials to their software. Especially with so many different models of blackberries and different carrier restrictions on data usage that are out their.

~via BB (wap.pinstack.com)~ I almost was going to download it. But for that price, I must agree that I need a trial first to know if its worth it.

[jscottbarnes]

I second those opinions... u have to offer a trial of something like this first...

BB users are too smart to dive in head first without knowing the potential pitfalls... these aren't ringtones you're trying to peddle guys... Offer a trial 1st - if the product is worthy, we'll support you long term

[i(heart)mybb1]

I'd have to agree, a trial would be nice for that price, not really into the radio thing, would be awesome but I have plenty of music on my mem card to keep me content that's... FREE. ;-)

No trial...no download

did anyone buy the program? would be nice to have some opinions...
and i THIRD that about the trials!
Jivetalk gives trial, and look at how many of us have it!

[alex003]

i just want to know if it is worth purchasing being that i am on TMO's wack EDGE. i would assume the quality wouldnt be up to par, but i dont want to throw $22 in the trash to TEST it... grrrrr.
what do you guys think??

[kane]

i dont see me giving this a try without a free trial

[doxaso]

~via BB (wap.pinstack.com)~I would have to agree with many of you here about a trial period before a purchase. I always view the comments and hear peoples input on software either free or trial before I take any consideration. In other words, a free trial would encourage the bb user community to take a look at their software before a purchase.

[Yogich]

No trial!!?? I'll pass. In my experience, little works with OS version 4.2.0.64 ...and all upgrades have compatibility problems on my 8100 --4.2.1.94 (Rogers); 4.2.1.73 (Cingular); 4.2.1.107 (TMO).

I think that the publisher will quickly find out that we prefer a reasonable trial period to make certain of any compatibility issues, as it appears others do, as well. Perhaps this pressure will prevail.

[Joe4pal]

Hmm I may pick this up and review it just for the community.~via BB (wap.pinstack.com)~

[rand0m]

wow, the UI looks real nice.. who wants to be the guinea pig and test this out?

Well the other blackberry's on GSM are running edge too so maybe one of them will try it for us Tmo users first.

[Spamdumpster]

I emailed them looking for a trial version. I'll post their response.

[alex003]

everyone cross their fingers for that TRIAL version...

[Joe4pal]

After reading through the actual site it seems a lot like the XM application that I removed from my phone.

XM for blackberry?

[scapegoat81]

How ??

Waaah I want something like this for my 8700c! That's the only model work gave me cause it was free with an ATT account (tightwads). Boo hooo

No I shouldn't complain. If it wasnt for my job I'd still be using my lousy ancient Nokia dumbphone I've had for two years.

[lldru32]

Come on gotta have a Trial period!!!

[oldgeek]

XM was crap, I don't know if it was EDGE or the site itself but when I took the trial of XM is would take about 30 seconds to get 5 seconds of audio. No way am I'm just going to pay for this without a trial.

[berryjam]

I dont know... it seems to be like it would be a cool app to have but i dont know if the 21.95 is worth it. No trial... hmm.... is there a refund option??? lol

[ssullivan8130]

Those people must be stupid. Nobody is going to buy something that they can try. Must be something easy they are doing, and can't write a trial cause the capabilities are already availible or something, and don't want to share how to do it.????

What ever.

[Haas]

Man anyone gonna be the sucker and get try this out for us :D

[ebanga]

Wow its unanimous. BB users demand a trial or its no dice
