bluetooth with fm-radio - General Accessories

Since I have a iy780 that does not have an inbuilt fm-radio I+d like to find a bluetooth headset with a fmradio.
The best one Ive seen seems to be Itech clip d-r.
Unfortunately they dont sell it in Europe. I havent been able to find one anyway.
I know Nokia has one but its almost triple the price of Itechs.
Why are there so few headsets with radio?
I dont understand it, must be a great need of such a headset.
Any recommendations for swedish user like me will be greatly appreciated.

Very new, no-one selling it I dont think, except in Korea.
Much better talk and standby times. 200hrs and 12-15hrs.

Ive found a flaw in its design :(

Its soooo terrible...
The FM radio only works with the offical headset. Wont work on third partys
Probebly a good thing i dont listen to the radio much
But this is really a fantastic phone i utter love it

ofcourse, the antenna of the radio is within the headset itself, its not in the phone, Lol, .... most phones are like this
Use internet radio Probably that's better.
Me neither, I don't listen to radio ...
For me, the most important thing is web browsing experience ...
- How good is the screen for web browsing
- How fast is the web browser
- How convenient is typing text (to comment in a web forum)
- How good is the bookmarking
- and so on
So far, from what I have seen (I dont have the device yet), it will satisfy my needs above.
Having simple Flash Lite 4.0 is a bonus while waiting the true Flash 10.1 !!!

That's very annoying if true. The user guide says "You need to connect a headset first to the audio jack of your phone to use FM Radio. FM Radio uses
the stereo headset as the FM radio antenna"
No mention that it has to be the supplied headset. It says "a" headset. And it only says the headset is the antenna. Most phones with built in FM radio will accept any headset as the antenna.
EDIT: It is also contradicted by this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=5998006&postcount=6
I have never tried a phone that need Offical headsett, the last i tried was htc hd2, no problem
Not unexpected , needing headphones plugged in, but for me that is irritating as i was hoping to be able to use it over a stereo bluetooth headset (yes i know there are headsets with radios built in but doubling up functionality annoys me , grump over)
Well considering I sat this morning listening to the radio with two different pairs of headphones, I disagree! One was a pair of in ear sennheisers and the other was a headset that came with my webcam.

Strange... i tryed my philips inear headphones from my Ipod the radio would run but i just get static all the way through insainly bad reception...
The HTC headphones provided worked fine... That was the basis of my gripe...
But its not really that much of a problem as i dont listen to FM radio anyway

Mine works fine with a non HTC headset.
It's 2010 FFS FM is dead. Internet?
Does the speaker location suffer like the N1?
I mean if you put your Desire on a table the sound doesn't get mufled?

The FM radio has to be built into the software on the phone. It is true that the headphones can work as an antennae, but they are still dependent on the software being there on the phone. As of now, no one has been able to successfully get a working FM radio on the Vibrant.
Sorry for my bad english i mean to say i want headphone in which fm radio is inbuilt not in samsung vibrant phone ...
you can use the sony mw600's, which are bluetooth. i've tried it once with the vibrant but purchased bluetooth headphones.
anyone know if i can use the mw600's, my sony bluetooth headphones, AND vibrant? kind of would defeat the purpose to have so many things in hand but I wouldnt mind missing to fm radio stations and when I first saw that the vibrant was gonna have an fm radio, like the hd2, etc...i was sold. not a dealbreaker that it didnt come with it though.

Which alternative wired handsfree ?

hi guys,
I lost my handsfree and wanted to know which alternative handsfree (wired) is compatible with the MT4G.
Out here, we dont have the MT4G (mine was an import), so I really have to look for different accessories to fit my phone.
It would be great to know, for example, if Nokia or Sony wired handsfree are compatible with this. Or even iPhone handsfree.
thanks in advance!

Call HTC they'll send you a new one, I've gotten 3 sent to me so far and you don't have to send the broken/missing one back.
