The idea of Listening to live podcasts on your iPhone is pretty awesome; I think it’s possibly the closest you can get to filling the void left by live radio. And the BBC’s just made it even easier to do by introducing a nifty site for navigating much of their audio content with an iPhone-friendly site.
By firing up Safari on your iPhone or iPod touch, you can just head over to BBC Podcasts, and you’ll be presented with several options for navigating the BBC’s content in an easy to use, iPhone-style hierarchical fashion. Browse by channel, by genre, or alphabetically. Selecting any podcast will show you a list of recent episodes, along with a short synopsis of each, and the ability to hit play right there and listen. Obviously, it works somewhat smoother on Wi-Fi than on EDGE, though according to the BBC Radio Labs, the team at the Beeb is working on tweaking the setup for EDGE. But if you ask me, it’s a very good start.

iPhone does not work in the cold weather when the users hands are cold (news from Ukraine). At least 1 out of 100 Ukrainians can not use iPhone if his/her hands are cold (below 36.6C) - screen just does not respond to the touches. Interestingly, number of not working iPhone cases, especially high among Ukrainian politicians :)
