Everybody please be advised that version 2009.12.13 can mute phones speakers temporarily when headphones output is selected, see https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7086
Turn the N900 into a FM radio
The headphones cable is the antenna. With this application you can tune into FM radio stations, just like in the old days before there was internet radio.

The initial volume when you switch to the speakers does not match the actual volume of the device. Sometimes it does not activate the bluetooth and the radio does not work, in these cases I have to restart the device. I use the version 2009.12.19
Works well for me, but at this time still a work in progress.
Promising, but at the moment is flaky with starting again after being closed (no sound).
works very well... yes there should be a possibility that you can set the station manually.
I found navigation difficult especially when searching around for a station. perhaps use the left/right navigation keys to scroll?
Works well when I take the N900 out of Silent mode. Just needs a way to input a station's frequency manually.
The reception quality highly depends on the headphones. The Nokia headphones that come with the N900 are said to give poor quality or no radio at all. Please try with cheap headphones without built-in microphones, or simply with a headphones extension cable without headphones. Those usually give the best results.
i don't understand how this application is supposed to work. i can add channels, but not get them to play.
