Oh, it plugs into the audio jack of the phone, or dock connector? If in the
dock, there's no reason VO couldn't work. I wonder if there's another IOS
radio out there? I hate to drag out the old booksense to plug into my PC
line in just for the stations around here that do not stream, but would like
decent (as well as FM sounds) radio I can control from the phone or PC.

A correction.
I said you will need to find the "done button on the bottom
left to return to the favorites page.
The done button is on the bottom right.
Sorry,

Hi All,
I have tested the Griffin iFM Radio Receiver for iPhone and iPod. Here
is a link:
http://www.amazon.com/Griffin-Radio-Receiver-iPhone-iPod/dp/B003ERT46...
The good news is that the FM reception and sound quality is fantastic!
The bad news is that the app is not accessible with voice over at all,
and I do not see anyway it could ever be.
The device plugs into the bottom of the iPhone which totally disables
speech. The headset plugs into the bottom of this device.
Under my video magnifier I was able to set up presets and I can run
the app via memory with voice over off.
The stations are listed in numerical order on the favorites page. The
main downside is the "Tuner button is in the center of the screen,
about 1 inch from the top of the phone, and if you hit this
accidentally, you will need to find the "done button on the bottom
left to return to the favorites page. With no voice over it would be
difficult for a totally blind user to avoid doing this.
If you are like me and listen to one radio station all the time then
you are in luck, the app retains the last station listened to, so all
you would have to do is double tap on the icon and the iFm will start.
And with voice over on, there is no danger of accidentally hitting the
tuner button.
IMHO definitely worth the 20 bucks!
Good luck,
Chuck
