hey guys it's Brandon minimun from pocketnow.com and this is a quick video of the Pandora application on the new LG Insight this is the first time we've gotten Pandora on Windows Mobile and a lot of people are excited Pandora creates a customized music channel based on the sound and the tone tonality of songs that you input into the station I'll show you it in a second alright so let's go off into the Start menu and programs and pendo is kind of buried here in AT&T music and here it is Pandora now when you use this over a 3G connection that says this product will use a lot of data and I'm gonna click OK now here's something that's kind of annoying the Pandora application is free but for only one day if you want to use the Pandora application it's eight dollars a month on AT&T we just really silly they should give this to you for free I mean it's free on the desktop computer or on a regular web browser so I'm going to press ok here I've got this is the first day that I've used it so I have a full day left of using the program okay now I should mention that up here it says tool radio tools a rock fan like a heavy rock band when I first started the application it asked me for a band or an artist that I like and the idea is that it creates a station based off of that kind of sound so it's playing Metallica right now and what I can do is I can do a thumbs up or a thumbs down depending on whether I like the sound and if I don't like it then it will kind of take the way that the song sounds and not show me those songs in the future so I'm gonna do thumbs down and you can hear it right now in the background and every time you do anything in this application it takes a few seconds for it to register and it's going to a perfect circle next let's say I like it but I don't want to rate it up or down I just want to go to the next track and so it says connecting and by the way the sound quality is pretty good I plugged in a headset it sounded like FM radio which can be expected from internet streaming radio on a mobile device here's a song by tool called opiate I'm gonna vote it up thumbs up it gets a thumbs up I'm gonna move to the next song and here's Rage Against the Machine which has a similar sounds at all it's kind of a harder harder rock band and of course you don't have to rate it up or down you can just let it play and be like a real radio station where it just goes through and it plays songs while you work out at the gym or you're in the car or something like that so that is the Pandora application and it's still running in the background right now so you can continue to do work on your device while the music plays so that's pretty much it for pandora radio on the LG insight it's a good application it works well it's just a shame that AT&T is charging $8 a month to be able to use it and that is it for now
