Answer: I have a theory that if you have a laptop with a cellular broadband card in it and hook the laptop up to your car stereo you can. Perry thinks that a cellular broadband card wouldn't be fast enough. No one has tried. Yet. |

As expected of country grown vegetables Group: Special Snowflake Posts: 2,330 Member No.: 19,520 Joined: Aug 14th 2006 Location: Redondo Beach, CA. | the only solution if you want initial d radio in our cars would be podcasting. (unless you have a in car pc with constant acess to the internet, but thats wayyy expensive) burn the cast onto a cd or hook up your ipod. |

My phone cannot handle it, so I doubt a cell card would. | ||

The problem with those is probably data transfer price in 3G and small coverage area with WLAN. Over here they have the central area of the city covered in a free WLAN network, so in theory listening to the radio would be possible there. |

Even GPRS should be able to do up to 64'ish afaik And how exactly is 96kbps a BROADBAND speed? A two-channel ISDN line can do 128kbps... and that's kinda like old-school modem technology. Are you perhaps confusing 96kbps and 96kBps? the size of the b matters. Small b = bit, big B = byte. 1 byte = 8 bits. 96kbps is roughly 12'ish kBps. A 256/256kbps DSL line theoretically does about 32kBps. 256kbps is the entry level broadband speed... if you're paying for a "broadband" that's slower than that, you're being ripped off (unless it's very cheap, of course ) This post has been edited by zomg on May 28 2007, 10:34 AM |
