XM Radio Mobile goes BlackBerry

It’s like the push-email isn’t addictive enough for CrackBerry owners, XM Radio is launching its optimized-for-mobile application/service for the RIM-made device owners. Expect to take 20 exclusive XM channels of commercial-free music and 24-hour comedy programming with you, wherever you go. The application’s easy-to-use interface with graphical icons for content genres and channels should make browsing of content/channels a snap. In addition, XM Radio Mobile can run in the background while you’re doing the usual “BlackBerry (NSDQ: RIMM) thing.”
Want it? You’ll need to have BlackBerry 8800, 8700, Pearl or Curve, and a willingness to pour out $7.99 per month. Free 24-hour trial is also available. Hop over to www.xmradio.com/bb to download the app or, in the meantime — if you want to know more — check out XM’s website or the official press release.
When will they come out with software for the new blackberry storm?
