Could you confirm N900 has FM radio tuner and it actually work?

Thanks.
I've noticed that people have been having problems with their Nokia N900 not having radio after the PR 1.3 update.
I've managed to get my radio turned back on. Here's how. Please follow the instructions on the following MyNokiaBlog website except
flash the necessary .bin files and Z-Image files at the following associated sites:

Cut and paste into your browser the addresses from where to get the files that will re-enable your N900's built-in radio.

Download an image to make your N900 faster at 900 mHz -it defaults at 600 mHz. The operative command line is:

flasher-3.5.exe -k zImage-900mhz -f -R

Install the fmradio.install app from Maemo's Repository after you have flashed the N900 with everything else.
