Wireless connectivity is shaping up to be one of the major themes at this year’s Consumer Electronics Show. We expect to see more Wi-Fi capable devices on the show floor next week, and 2008 will most likely being WiMAX-capable devices that can receive internet radio in more locations.
In anticipation, Torian Wireless will debut on Monday a heavily-redesigned version of its MiRoamer internet radio portal, which allows users to organize internet radio stations across multiple devices. Through a single interface, users will be able to search and browse worldwide online radio stations, adding them to favorites. If a station isn’t included in MiRoamer’s catalog, it can be added by pasting in the URL.
Users will be able to listen to the stations through the site, as opposed to surfing to each station, and subscribe to premium stations through the site too. (If the royalty rates for webcasters stay where they are, you can bet lots of stations will offer a paid, ad-free option).

The torian team have done well with miroamer.
It’s awesome I used to use to put in URL’s manually - Now I use miroamer as a desktop stereo, library and my one stop for iradio
