    1. I haven’t used Slacker, but will give it a try; at least on the free trial. I’m not keen on the idea of paying a monthly fee.

      I’ve been using Pandora for years. I also have it installed on my BlackBerry. Not sure if it was a glitch or what, but I was able to d/l and use it on BlackBerry with no problem. Pandora is awesome… and free!
