Does the N1 have an FM radio? There's no mention in Google's official spec sheet, (to my knowledge.) But I've heard the hardware is there and now a mention of a software update could enable this function.
I really doubt it. Think about all the specialty ROMS everyone is rooting with. If there was a disabled FM radio in the N1, don't you think this would have been enabled by rooting by now?
Just because the chip supports FM radio doesn't mean the board it's mounted to has the traces connected, also there may not be an antenna attached for it to pickup stations.
Now it would be very cool if it did!
The antenna is also a moot point; on devices like these, the headphone cord IS the antenna.
I'd love a radio app, but I'd be more excited about an FM transmitter.
I can't see much use for the transmitter. I suppose for use in a car with no AUX input.
The interesting thing about the specs of that Broadcom chip is that it supports 801.11 a/b/g/n. How long before we see the N capability turned on?
