FM Radio?

[nokiabolt]

I tried searching around to no avail, but WP8 support or not as of yet, does the 822 have hardware support for FM Radio? I hope so, as my Droid RAZR Maxx HD does not..

Not yet, but in a Windows GDR2 Release around the holidays, it is expected to be added to most Windows Phone 8 devices. Hope this helps.

New Zealand doesn't celebrate. Christmas and New Year's???

I thought GDR2 was supposed to be around June. That's the update that's supposed to enable FM Radio support (except for the 620)

The December update is GDR3, I think.

Lol, with Verizon lagging three months behind on Portico, I won't hold my breath until September hahah. I hope I get the new Lumia firmware too for my 822. Haha.

Oh well, my LG Quantum with WP7.8 is being resuscitated!

Thanks, everyone. I hope it comes out soon..

Yeah. GDR2 will be summer, and according to WPCentral Podcast it will include FM Radio, as well as improved podcast support, among other things.
