iPhone FM Radio: Apple re-brands the wheel as new and innovative... again
 
CNET Report: Apple developing radio app for iPhone

It makes me sick how great apples marketing is. This is not quite as bad as when apple brought cut-and-paste to the mobile world, but it sitll annoys me. I had an FM radio on my Nokia >5 years ago and GPS and Weatherpoof, and Thermometer And.... and the phone still works for my parents!

Oh, and it had cut and paste too.

After years of Steve Jobs saying "FM radio sucks, we don't want to ruin our user's music experience with FM radio" ... now they're going to say "hey, look how awesome we are, we have FM radio!"
