Hi, new to Android world...
First Android/Desire impression: still needs a lot of work to be great, really useful & stable - Handspring/Palm Treo history repeating (gone through Treos 180/270/600/650/680 with all their issues...)
I agree with mad - RDS works, but very badly.
- Only RDS PI (station name) seems to be implemented, there is no other RDS functions (like in car stereos) - EON, AF, TA/TP, PTY,...
- signal needs to be at least 5/7 for PI to work
- works better after turning the radio off/on, then stops again when tuning to another station
Other issues with FM radio application:
- hang on my Desire - phone did not even shutdown; had to remove battery (I know, I need a task killer...)
- stereo/mono switch does nothing even on 7/7 signal strength (always just mono)
- no preset +/- buttons on phone interface (only scan+/-)
- the original headphone buttons should double as volume control (as on ipod shuffle)
