I wanted to report back on my efforts to play streams via WiFi on my X3i. Using gsplayer, I have been successfull in play Shoutcast streams. But I still can't get Live365 (www.live365.com) streams to play. What happens is when you click on a play icon using Pocket IE in Live365, a little window pops up real quick and then disappears before you can read it and nothing plays. I think I know what happens. When you try this on a PC, a pop-up window appears that contains Live365's player interface. This happens even if you have told it to use your local mp3 player to play the stream. I think Pocket IE doesn't like this little pop-up window for some reason. Has anyone else run across this? I may try a different browser and see if I have any better success. I'd love to use Thunderhawk but have a problem with paying a monthly fee to use it.
