iphones should just be able to open the stream urls for 3g streaming here:

NOTE: it's not recommended that people on the streets try and listen all the time via their phones as that will quickly drain the batteries - short news updates will be given on the hour every hour.

You may have to enable non marketplace installs for this to install on your phone.

Note on installing and running

Due to the short notice and ongoing development, the app is still signed with the android sdk debug key. However, this will run just fine on the phone.

Please note that running a permanent stream via 3G will take a lot of battery! The availability of the stream - despite the fact that it uses a downsampled stream of 32kbit - will also massively depend on the quality of service of your carrier.

Developers

if you do not trust the developers or want to improve the application, you can build the app yourself.

checkout the code from the repository (subversion)
