Same here. The iPhone/Touch app can't be far behind. Can't wait!

Out of curiosity I tried to replace "Blackberry" with "iPhone" and it works - but says that the link is "Coming Soon". Can't wait!

Edit to add that I do see that while the Blackberry app lists untethered capabilities, the iPhone app does not. I don't think many will be shocked by this, but many of us were at least hopeful...

I just went to the Slacker site and there is actually a link to the iPhone page at the bottom of the main page. So, I guess it wasn't very clever of me - I just did it the hard way! I'm kinda slow that way.

I am a bit confused about something I read. Someone posted that only on the Blackberry will it let you cache the music to the device for later playback? Does this mean that the iPhone/iPod Touch version isn't going to download music to the device for later playback? This would mean it would have to stream the music? I am misunderstanding?

You have it correct. The Blackberry can cache, but the iPhone app would be a "stream only" similar to the Web Player. Definitely not the best situation, but was expected by many.

Anyone know if IPhone app will support IPod touch as well?

Anything for Windows 6.* mobile devices in the rumor mill?
