DAB in the UK is a dead end because its obsolete format and crap quality. The rest of Europe are gearing up for DAB+. Also even the best dedicated DAB receivers are a total battery hog, so it's the last thing you'd want to put in a phone where the battery resource is so limited. The Virgin Lobster was a flop even though it was a full Windows Mobile Smartphone with DAB selling at just £40 SIM free. No wonder Nokia don't want go there. It's analogue TV that's being switched off by 2012, not radio. I can't see them ever switching off analogue radio - nit just for entertainment reasons - it's a strategic emergency communications medium after all.
