Slacker launches promised app for Palm phones
Slacker on Thursday launched the promised Slacker Radio Mobile app for Palm handsets that run on webOS. This includes the Pre, Pre Plus, Pixi and Pixi Plus. Users in the US and Canada can download the free app either by visiting the App Catalog or Slacker's website from their webOS smartphone. Palm phone users will then be able to customize each station based on their personal likes based on artists.
Owners will have access to the same 120-plus stations of different genres, and more than 10,000 artist stations. Listeners can also view artist biographies, album art and reviews, as well as look what is coming up on their playlists. Songs can be tagged as favorites or banned altogether.
Users who download the app have a limited number of skips per hour. Slacker Premium removes the restriction for a $5 per month fee.
