OK. So I have had an evening to play with this thing a bit. Frankly I am a little bit disappointed. But it is more due to what appears to be the limitations of Android than this particular phone. I thought I was going to be able to simply go to the browser, pop in the URL, and voila, I would be able to listen to streaming web radio. But it is not so simple. That was one of the main reasons I bought this thing so I am kinda bummed. There are apps that have some stations preset. But I guess the ones I want to hear aren't the right format (requiring flash player or WMA). And you SOL if you want to listen to most of the BBC.

The touch screen is a little finicky. And the "back" button doesn't work consistently.

Part of this may be my learning curve. I have an old cellphone that I hardly ever use. So I am coming to this whole world of smartphones cold. But I am not a luddite by any means. I just never felt the need to be constantly available by phone. I don't make a lot of calls.

At this point I have just been using it connected to my wifi network. But I guess I will need to decide what sort of T-Mobile plan to get. I may just do a data only plan.
