The app. is sweet, just really needs the ability to cache songs to listen to offline.My BlackBerry Storm will cache songs but the sound quality on the iPod touch is way better.

I have been using this for 1.5 days now. This app is sweet! The Slacker radio stations are better than any I’ve listened to before (Pandora, LastFM…) and it’s cool that I can personalize my own stations right on the phone.

Just downloaded it and ran on my iPod touch. I like it better than Pandora’s new “genre” based stations. Pandora’s logic is quite a bit more clumsy and it’s library is smaller than Slacker. Now only if Slacker could cache songs “offline” on the iPod like the Slacker device does, it would truly rock. There is probably no way Apple would allow that – they are way too greedy and monopolistic.

This app is great. I currently use it on my Blackberry Bold and it works flawlessly. It probably won’t be as good on the iPhone/iPod because the iPhone/iPod can’t mulititask just yet.

Steve you really need to flip that switch already. Update 3.0…?

love it on the BlackBerry, I wonder if at some point they’ll be able to cache on to the iphone, which to me is killer since on a plane short of what UA flights no data

Tried it and it crashed immediately. I would try it again but it doesn’t really offer anything pandora doesn’t, so what’s the point?

Looks great, too bad it doesn’t work outside of the US.
