Is it just a matter of activating the FM chip, though?  I thought I remember 
reading somewhere that part of the problem was getting an antenna that could be 
shared among all the radio frequencies.  Some phones were using the headphone 
socket to provide the radio with an aerial, and that of course makes for some 
unseemly requirements on listening.

And let’s not forget that this is Apple.  Between scratching the itch of the 
telcos upon whose generosity their success is highly conditioned, the “User 
experience” of listening to FM, and—oh, I don’t know—filling their own pockets 
on the ill-gotten gains of app sales, is it really that much of a wonder, even 
if they could get it working, that they’d be reluctant to do so?
