Slacker Mobile App Brings Radio to the BlackBerry

Friday January 9, 2009
Straight out of the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas comes word of the free Slacker Personal Mobile application for BlackBerry smartphones.

If you own one, the app will let you stream Slacker radio stations on-the-go (whether your phone is connected to a wireless network or not).

According to a press release: "Slacker station caching, an exclusive feature for BlackBerry smartphones, enables mobile listeners to store favorite stations on a memory card, allowing Slacker music service to play without a network connection..."

Slacker offers thousands of stations, some programmed by pros, others programmed by individual Slacker users.

The Slacker Personal Radio Mobile can be downloaded at www.slacker.com/blackberry. (Available to U.S. customers, requires Device Software version 4.3 and higher.)
