Visual radio?

To some it may sound a bit bizarre, but visual radio looks set to become widely accessible. Nokia have annouced plans for handsets that will receive radio and visual information, including pictures and text. It is suggested that listeners could interact with radio broadcasts using the technology, perhaps even buying tracks they hear directly from their handsets. Here's a .pdf file from Virgin Radio that looks pretty, as well as having some useful statistics and ideas about what's in it for listeners and institutions. If you want to be first to 'experience' visual radio you'll need a Nokia 3230 or 7710.
