  Bad news I'm afraid.

  I have just looked and it appears you can't install it on the N95.

  It is available for N96 and N85 though by the looks of things.

  A note to those who do have it on their phones:

  While finding the info for Eleanor, I entered:
  www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer

  ...On my N96 and rather than being presented with the install page for the 
iplayer, was presented with what looked like the page you get when you access 
the BBC Iplayer page through the Iplayer application.

  But, this time, it was accessible!  I don't have a wireless connection at 
work so, can't verify whether it will play content this way but, will report 
back tomorrow with the results.

suggestions from anyone on the list.

    That is pretty much what you do though.

    I can't remember exactly what you are presented with but, it is quite 
straight forward.

    Your starting point is:

    www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer

    Just click on the download/install option you will be presented with and go 
through the usual install process.

    How can I kdownload iPlayer to my N95 please?  Do not just tell me to go to 
the BBC website and the iplayer site and download it.  I would need more 
information than that.  Thanks in advance.

              Hi Steve

              Thanks for this.

              I think there is a way of getting these as web feeds in the phone 
we browser but, not sure.

              I will have to have a look and report back!

              Thanks again though, I will put these to good use.

              Hi Paul, I've done 3 stations upto now, just the main ones I 
listen to.  The first 1 is my local station which I'm sure you're not 
interested in.  The others are BBC 5Live and BBC 7, links are as follows.  I 
just sent these links to my phone via e mail and then open the links, saved 
them and then I've got them stored.  Ok here they are:
              BBC 5Live:
              http://www.bbc.co.uk/fivelive/live/surestream.ram    

              BBC 7:
              http://www.bbc.co.uk/bbc7/realplayer/dsatg2.ram   


              HTH, cheers Steve.

                Hi Steve

                That sounds interesting and I would like the links you have if 
that is OK?

                That is the kind of thing I would do too.

                Not sure how it would work for programming that changes 
regularly, but, things like listening live to radio should be fine I would 
think.

                Subject: [talks-uk] Internet radio on mobile phone


                Hi folks.  Yesterday I was a little frustrated, as I wanted to 
listen to some commentary on my phones FM radio as I walked home with my sons, 
but then found out that it was being broadcast over the internet instead.  BBC 
programs as you know, use the iPlayer to broadcast and therefore it isn't 
available via the phone unless you use a wi fi connection...and, of course, the 
iPlayer isn't supported anyway.

                Well tonight I put my thinking cap on to see if there was a way 
around this.  Now I don't want to presume people aren't doing this already, but 
as I haven't read any posts on this I'll tell you what I did and hopefully some 
of you may find it useful.  I went to my local BBC radio page and clicked on 
"listen live".  iPlayer opens and the radio stream begins.  I then opened a 
program I have which can detect the URL of any media currently playing.  Anyway 
from that, with a bit of editing from the beginning of the URL found, I was 
left with a direct link to the BBC stream that bypasses the iPlayer.  I sent 
this link via e mail to my phone, clicked on "open link" and hey presto real 
player kicked in and I had the station!

                I did the same for a few other BBC stations and all worked 
perfectly.  I just saved the stream into the gallery for future use.  I guess 
this can be done for any station.  I'm going to try ITV tomorrow and see if 
that works aswell.  If anyone needs links to put into their phones, let me know 
and we'll see what we can do.  Cheers Steve.
