I've been listening to Smooth Jazz and Real Country stations, so far. I really love it! I've tested it with both WiFi and Edge. I'm no audiophile, but I can't tell the difference. And, there was no break in the music when I switched back and forth. I can confirm there's no jailbreaking or hacking required. I'm running iPhone 1.1.3 on AT&T in USA with no jailbreak. I rented a car for three weeks which had Sirius. I like Flytunes every bit as much. Better because it's free. And, yes, there are ads. Just received my Flytunes login a few moments ago.

And most of the apps that are currently available for jailbroken iPhones will be easily migrated once the official SDK is released in February. But, Apple will also introduce new apps of the own, at least three, and one is likely to be internet radio. It will actually probably be included in the iTunes WiFi app along with video, ringtone, and game downloads.

Looks like it is designed specifically FOR the iPhone. With the AT&T service as slow as it is...will probably take about 15 minutes to cache 30 minutes of music!

You can't stream and use safari for anything else at the same time. That is why you need to go the 3rd party application route (at least for now).

(iphone.wfmu.org) It is powered by TVersity and does not require hacking the iPhone. I don't know the the tech side of it, but believe it uses QT somehow. The downside is I can't figure out how to keep using Safari while streaming the station. The radio station WFMU already streams straight to iPhone.
