SelectRadio(TM) Software Turns Wireless Handhelds into Variety-Packed Universal Radio Receiver

Posted on: Monday, 27 February 2006, 12:00 CST

SelectRadio(TM) software for wireless handhelds, which was announced last month at the International Consumer Electronics Show, is now available. Users of compatible Windows Mobile-based handhelds with SelectRadio software can access a wide variety of live radio content, find new music or old favorites and set up personalized groups of channels. For easy access to popular broadcasters, SelectRadio software includes pre-defined screens of channels from top broadcasters, including XM Radio Online (Nasdaq:XMSR), Shoutcast, and Internet radio pioneer radioio (Pink Sheets:IWDM).

"The SelectRadio solution allows listeners to more fully experience the incredible variety we offer as a cutting-edge, top 10 Internet radio broadcasting group. With SelectRadio software, users have one-touch preset access to any of our radioio channels, including our CD-quality streams and unique new History, '90s and Eclectic channels," noted Michael Roe, founder of radioio.

SelectRadio software lets users search from more than 4,000 channels, using an advanced genre-matching hierarchy or by matching terms to the station descriptions. SelectRadio software users can combine favorite channels into their own personal channel groups for easy access and a "virtual dashboard" showing what's playing across multiple channels with one-touch access. With its patent-pending HyperScan(TM) technology, SelectRadio software automatically seeks favorite artists and can be set to skip specified artists.

SelectRadio software is compatible with Intel XScale 270-powered handhelds, including the latest family of Dell Axim devices, the HP iPaq hx series and others with Microsoft Windows Mobile 2003 or Windows Mobile 5.0 operating systems. For live listening, SelectRadio software requires a network connection via either the handheld WiFi connection or through the USB ActiveSync connection to the desktop.

SelectRadio software is priced at $25 for a device-specific license. A free 10-day fully functional trial is available for evaluation prior to purchase at www.selectradio.com.
