    Is there any internet radio apps? Or can I just go to radio websites and listen straight from there?

    It's for when I'm at work, I'll be able to get onto wi-fi, but the reception for radio is poor, so the FM radio on my desire is a bit weak...

    Any ideas?

    I just tried mine there cause , to be frank, I didnt know it had a radio. Its absolutely dog rough, the reception is terrible, just pure static on stations that should be crystal.

    I haven't tried mine...

    But depending on what you want there are a few internet radio/streaming apps in the store.

    Zeradio isn't too bad and does have TodayFM, Newstalk and a few others from Ireland.
    Or StreamFurious or XiiaLive are quite decent shoutcast

    my preference being XiiaLive out of all of them.

    The radio is a bit crappy. To get the best out of it I have to use the stock headphones (hate them). My other headphones just don't get good enough reception (they're used for the aerial, right?).
    And be careful not to walk near tall buildings.

    Is streaming heavy on data usage?
