    Has anyone been able to use Pandora or any other kind of music service and keep the music playing when switching to a different tab in the browser? If I open Pandora and get the music going then I make a new tab or switch to an open tab the music stops. I've gotten it to work once or twice but I think it was more of a glitch or bug than an actual feature because I've only been able to repeat it twice completely on accident.

    If you are not hooked on Pandora use the Slacker app on the PB. You can listen with that app and do what you'd like in the browser.

    Check your setting in general and make sure the option is on default and it should work... I always stream podcast from the browser and browse another page at the same time...

    Tried that setting with both Pandora and steaming a podcast from CLR.net. Still doesn't work. The music stops as soon as I switch to a new tab. It will play in the background if I minimize the browser but if I swap tabs within the browser it will stop. Not that big of a deal but it'd be nice if it worked.

    I wish they would allow multiple instances of the browser instead of just tabs. Or at least make the tabs separate processes.

    Yes, I have been able to do what you say using the Shoutcast music service. I wrote some instructions in this post http://forums.crackberry.com/f222/st...aybook-625170/ as to what I did to get it to work.
