Pandora's music streaming gets mobile with Sprint

Pandora's tumultuous penchant for locking out US-based listeners based on licensing messes (thanks, RIAA) has taken a back seat to its new over-the-air launch with Sprint. While AT&T customers have had MobiRadio for years, Sprint customers tired of streaming Sirius will have a new reason to use that wireless data for music, so if you've got an EV-DO handset, get that phone browser up and hit Pandora's site. What you'll get in return is a Java applet that gives you access to Pandora's streaming content catalog -- access is free for 30 days; past that is $3/month, naturally.

this is awesome, Pandora and Slacker should eventually offer a very good and cheaper alternative to Satellite Radio.

More choices are good for the customer.

I hope they do something similar with T-mobile as well soon.

It is sad that you can't say "natch" like the old days, because there would be 100 users commenting on speaking good English.. ;)

I downloaded it into my FUSIC 550 sprint, and it works GREAT, awesome, I am just listening to all my favorite bands with new music just thrown in. The quality is very good, Almost no interruptions and the images are great. The interface is very responsive and doesnt feel glitchy.
Only problem
My phone doesnt ring when the application is running, Cant wait to take it to the gym
