Wow, this is potentially a deal-breaker for me. It didn't even cross my mind that an FM tuner might not be included.
Any update on whether or not this is true?

As far as I know, you can download TuneIn apps for free so that you can listen the radio all over the world. Right now I am listening country music from a US radio station while in travelling an Asia country. I am using a lumia 610. L920 and L820 should be much better I believe.
Its a Music+Video feature in every windows phone. Why would it not be present
I never understood why people want FM tuning on their phone or MP3 players... Almost every radio station on the planet now streams via web or app their live radio feed. I like listening to AM radio but don't complain that my phone doesn't have an AM tuner.
Just stream it.
Clearly you haven't read through this thread...

Know sombody if radio fm would be available on this "next gen" of windows phone devices? I'm trying to develop a little radio fm inside my app and it doesn't works. Also ther's no refrence on Lumia 920 or Music+Video app...

Hi,
FM Radio was an optional feature in WP7.x. WP8 does not have an FM Radio.

I did and there is a reason I have an FM Radio in most places I feel the need to listen to FM. Absolutely 0 desire to use my phone to tune in FM Radio. I use, ya know, a radio for that.
That's what I do. There aren't any local FM stations worth listening to.
