Help opening up a media stream

I like to listen online to a radio station out of Chicago. I do this all the time with my laptop without any problems. I would like to be able to listen to the stream on my AximX50v, but I can't figure out how.

The website is:
http://www.wlsam.com/article.asp?id=152352

On that page there are three choices of how to listen online:
Windows Media Player
Real Player
MP3 Stream

On my laptop I always click on Windows Media Player which opens up a little window (not the full Windows Media Player) and starts to play the stream.

This method doesn't work on my Axim, but I am sure there must be some way to make it work.

Any ideas on how to make this work on an Axim?

Thanks, that worked perfectly.

Would it be easy to explain how you figured that out, don't bother if it is complicated?

What is the easiest way to bookmark this now? Sould it be a favorite in Pocket Internet Explorer or somehow saved in WMP?

Sure what I did was view the source of the popup page and looked for the stream url. This stream was easy to find because it is right under the code to put the media player activex on the page.

Yeah the easiest way is to bookmark in PIE.
