hi, i read a few posts ago that the radio handsfree doesnt even show the frequency your listening to in the phone's display... is that trueee???? do we have to look for fm stations "manually" without knowing where you are?????

True. Manual scan, no display.

The ericsson radio solution is a shit! You only able to scan the station, there is no memory function. The handsfree only got the power from the phone. The older model is the worst, there is no real volume control and mono.

I also think that Ericssons radio sucks. I have the latest radio HF and I am quite fed up with it. Motorola has a better system, Nokia has an even better one... Ericssons is obsolete.

Correct, everything is set manually and nothing is shown in the display. Beside that, the sound isn't very good either.

One good thing about the radio HF though... the headphones are better than in a normal HF so the sound of the other speaker is more natural.

I agree, that it is a bit crappy, it doesn't even remember which frequency you were listening at after you switch it off. Instead, you will have to start over searching from 87 MHz or something. Still, the phone needs to be turned on in order to be able to use the radio. It's not very expensive though, about 300 SEK (30 €), and I don't agree with those saying that the sound quality is poor, since it isn't, the quality is rather good, actually, even though it's ony monophonic, despite the two earpieces. Also, it cuts the radio automatically when someone rings, and the headset and the microphone have the same features as the ordinary handsfree cable.
