Description:

Enjoy music on the train ride home or keep up with the latest news and weather. The Cue Radio allows you to listen to your favorite FM stations while working with your Handspring Visor. It fits easily into the Springboard expansion slot and includes a 3.5-millimeter stereo miniplug jack for standard earphones. You can select from 600 FM stations as well as preprogram a list of stations from multiple cities. You also get weather forecasts and news headlines (localized for over 500 cities) sent to your Handspring, free of charge.

Additionally, the Cue Radio features subscription service options for text messaging and traffic alerts.

The Cue Radio works as a pager, and with the personal messaging subscription service you can receive text messages on either a nationwide or a local basis. The Cue Radio will receive wireless notifications of e-mail messages, which displays the subject, sender, and first 40 characters of the message on your Visor's screen. The price for local messaging (available in over 500 cities across North America) is $15 for 100 messages. Nationwide service covers 98 percent of the North American populace and is priced at $49 for 100 messages.

You can also receive traffic alerts over Cue's FM subcarrier network of 600 radio stations across North America. These alerts can be programmed for specific routes within your city using the Cue Web site. The TrafficAlert service is available in over 50 markets at an annual rate of $60.
