Didn't see it mentioned in any of the threads so I thought I'd bring folks' attention to Finetune's streaming music site. I tried Pandora but it doesn't play very nice with the tablets. Finetune though has site that is optimized for the Wii, which works very well on my n810.

http://finetune.com/wii/player.php

I've been using it to stream music through my home stereo as well as when I'm on the go.

Any other sites that really work well with the tablets?

Thanks for the link. Good recommendation.

Have you checked out Vagalume, LastFM client for the N8** ?

Looks very interesting. I think the keyboard on the n810 is your friend on this site. Unfortunately on the N800/OS2008beta the on screen keyboard only appears for a second and the dissapears. Can't really enter any searches.

@moonshine: that sucks. I didn't realize that. So it only really works on the n810? Bummer. Maybe the main page will work better for you?

On my n800 - os2007 the full 'onscreen' thumb keyboard doesn't pop up either ...
... so I need to use the small keyboard with the stylus or with my index nail + character handwriting.
Thanks for posting about the Finetune 'player' - Great find!
[Only had used the main page before]

PS: apart from esfresh.com I mentioned above I also join in recommending Vagalume - to get an idea try last.fm/listen

Same situation here with OS2007; my trick: type in my search keyword or artist on notes app, copy and paste on Finetune search box.
BTW great find!

It was really slow to load for me - I kept getting the 'this actionscript is causing delays' error. maybe i just should have been more patient.
