Apple Could Be Adding FM Radio To The iPhone and iPod Touch [Rumor]
Apple
Written by Patrick Laughner on Wednesday, October 14, 2009

500x_nano_6_01 Last month Apple unveiled their 5th generation iPod Nano’s at the Yerba Buena Center for the Arts. The refresh of the iPods included the ability to listen to FM radio. Rumors are climbing the grape-vine that Apple will give the iPhone and iPod Touch the ability too. The WiFi and Bluetooth chipsets in the iPhone 3GS and the 2nd and 3rd generation iPod Touch already have the ability to listen in on FM radio.

Another reported feature is that you may be able to listen to the radio while using other apps at the same time. Just as you do synced music. Other features include Live Pause and iTunes tagging, like what is found in the 5th generation iPod Nano’s. Allowing you to buy the played song through the iTunes store via your iPod Touch or iPhone.
