While listening to men’s fastball on Ballparkradio can be as easy as a couple of mouse clicks, the main drawback, as compared to “regular radio” is that “internet radio” has not been as portable. We have noticed an increase in “laptop listeners” at the tournaments, both at the field, or more often back at the hotel, which lends some degree of portability, though still requiring some sort of internet connection. But now, with growing sophistication of cell phones, it is getting easier still to listen to Ballparkradio, no matter where you are. A number of cell phones offer web-browsing, and some even run on Windows Mobile and include Windows Media Player. The Palm Treos are among those offering the ability to tune into Ballparkradio. With the prevalence of iPhones, it’s too bad that Windows Media is still like kyptonite to Apple products (though there are some solutions in the works that would permit Windows media to play on them)
The new Sprint Mogul (HTC 6800 shown above) has the best capability that I’ve seen thus far — it runs Windows Mobile 6, and has a built in Windows Media Player just like on your computer. It’s as if you have are listening to a transistor radio in your pocket, allowing you to tune into the broadcast anywhere. Add to that an iPod plug in your rental car (the little 1/8″ place to plug your mp3 player in), and you’ll think you’re listening to XM radio. I arrived in Orlando on Thursday night, while Kyle Smith and Blair Setford were already on the air, but was able to listen to them while driving in from the airport to the Disney complex, and was able to monitor the broadcasts from the bleachers.
In any event, I thought I would pass along the info, in case you are among those with web-enabled cell phones. Listening to men’s fastpitch on Ballparkradio is getting easier all the time.
Below the jump is a list of other Windows Mobile Phones with which you can tune into Ballparkradio. The list is not all-inclusive, but a good starting point. If you have been able to tune into Ballparkradio.com (or want to test by connecting to any streaming broadcast at Sportjuice), drop us a line, jim (at) fastpitchwest.com and tell us what kind of phone it is.
